Several sentimental ornaments are believed to have been stolen from a grave at Castle Green Cemetery, off Lincoln Hill, since December 2015.

During this time, items at the graveside have been moved and disrupted in a deliberate manner, say police.

Anyone with any information should call West Mercia Police on 101 quoting incident number 401s of December 21.

This comes five months after similar incidents were reported at the cemetery, when sentimental ornaments and tokens were knocked over and damaged, while a general mess was also made around the grave.
