“Considerable and costly damage to the shed roof has resulted, while numerous bales of hay have been destroyed.
“This shed is situated at the front of a property, near the roadside. And, while the material damage caused has been significant, the end result could have been even more devastating. It’s worrying to think what might have happened to anyone out walking along the nearby footpath at that time.
“We are appealing to anyone with information, or who may have noticed any suspicious activity, to get in touch on 101 quoting reference number 1491 of 19/01/20.
