A RARE horse cart valued at £2,000 has been stolen from a yard in Shurton, where it was parked on grass.
The four-wheel riding carriage was taken during the night of Sunday-Monday, April 22-23.
However, details of the theft have only just been published by the police, who are appealing for information about the crime.
The 18-month-old carriage was built in Poland and is bright purple and cream in colour with black seats and tyres and has lights on the undercarriage.
The maker's name, 'Julian Talbot', is written on the side of the carriage.
Police would like to speak to anybody who may have witnessed the theft, or who may have been offered the carriage for sale, or who might know the offenders involved.
