Shed burglars have been striking across the Maldon district.
In Wood Road, Heybridge, items were stolen from a shed on March 14.
Between March 12-16, burglars also struck in Dorset Road in Maldon ransacking a shed and causing extensive damage to the door and side panel.
Between March 8-10, burglars pulled out the screws surrounding a hasp lock and got inside a shed in Latchingdon.
A weeding tool was stolen and it is thought that this was used to break into other sheds on the Burnham Road Allotment site in Latchingdon.
