Caught on CCTV: Trespassers cause damage to farm buildings near Cleobury Mortimer

CCTV shows the two individuals using brute force to break into several buildings at Mawley Town Farm.

The incident took place in the early hours of Tuesday morning, from midnight onwards.

Rachael Robinson, who farms at Mawley Town Farm, said the pair had their faces completely covered, making them hard to identify.

She added: "They were also wearing hats, gloves as well as tracksuits and trainers.

"They arrived just after midnight, in the early hours of Tuesday morning. We can follow them on the cameras and you can see them snooping around the different buildings.

"My husband has to go up to the yard and tend to the animals late at night, so it's a bit worrying.

"It's so disconcerting when we are around our yard calving cows and also have milkmen and tanker drivers arriving all hours of the night.

Climbed

The owners of Mawley Town Farm were hoping someone may have seen something, as many of the buildings face the busy A4417.

"One of the men climbed up onto one of the sheds, and pulled back the tin. We were hoping someone might have spotted them because it faces the busy road," explained Rachael.

Thankfully nothing was stolen from the farm, however significant damage was caused which will be costly to repair.

Further suspicious activity was reported in the area the same night, including a motor bike stolen from a nearby home.

West Mercia Police are warning people to be more vigilant. Anyone with more information should report it to police by calling 101.
