The first burglary, in Wold View, took place between 3.15pm and 8.05pm on Thursday evening (October 11), while the second burglary took place in The Crescent between last Sunday (October 7) and 9.15am on Friday morning.

In both instances, the offenders gained entry to the rear of the property and carried out ‘untidy searches’ inside, with cash and jewellery being removed.
