Police are appealing for witnesses following a burglary at Sidmouth Parish Church in which a large amount of silverware was stolen.

The incident reportedly took place between 7pm on Sunday 19 March and 8.30am on Monday 20 March.

The force said the overnight burglary appeared to have been planned as the safe was also broken into and around £1,000 taken.

A Devon and Cornwall Police spokesperson said: "We are also asking that anyone who lives nearby checks CCTV, dashcam or video doorbell footage to see if anything suspicious has been captured.

"A large amount of silverware was taken and we would like to hear from anyone, or any business that have been offered these items for sale in recent days."

Anyone with any information regarding this incident or anyone aware of attempts to sell the stolen items can contact police online or by calling 101 quoting reference 50230064511.
