Three watches and a Swiss Army Knife were among the items stolen in a burglary in north Cumbria.
Police are investigating the break-in, at Heads Nook, near Carlisle, which happened between last Friday, September 15 and Monday.
Several items were taken, including:
- A man’s Garrads automatic gold watch with gold flex wristband, with a round cream face.
- A grey, round face man’s wristwatch, inscribed with a message from Ferguson Brothers.
- A women’s square Rotary gold watch with pearlized face.
- A new Swiss Army Knife, red and silver with a Swiss flag motif.
Police would like to speak to anyone who may have seen anything suspicious, including persons or vehicles, in the Heads Nook area that weekend.
Police issued a reminder to residents to be extra vigilant and to ensure windows and doors are secured when they leave the house.
Officers are also looking to identify any CCTV of three men in the Warwick Bridge/Burnigg/Little Corby area on September 12.
The men have been cold calling on various addresses, trying to sell artwork and purporting to be deaf.
Police said they were open minded as to whether it was connected to the Heads Nook burglary.
