Detectives are investigating a burglary in Burwardsley.

Between 3.30pm and 4.15pm on Sunday July 15, a woman was in her living room in Fairview on Harthill Road when she heard a man’s voice coming from outside her house.

Both the woman and the man had a brief conversation outside about her garden and when she went back inside her house she noticed jewellery and cash had been stolen as well as horse tack.

The man is described as having stubble and tanned skin, aged in his mid-twenties and was wearing a cap.

Detective Constable Scott Buckley, of Chester CID, said: “While our enquiries continue I am appealing to anyone who may have seen a man in the area acting suspiciously to come forward and call 101.”

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Cheshire Police on 101 quoting IML 124798 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
