Hundreds of lights recovered in Hertfordshire theft investigation

The Richardson candle lamps were installed on a number of streets in Cambridge in the 1950s.

The listed lanterns were taken at various times between about 13 September and 1 October 2024, from St John’s Street and Trumpington Street.

At the time, Heritage England referred to the incidents as a “heritage crime”.

PC Thomas Woollard, from the North Herts Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “We believe the majority are from across Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire and may have gone missing in the last six months.

“This is a unique case and significant investigations are being conducted into the items recovered.

“We have already made contact with local authorities and Heritage England.

“If you think some may belong to you, please get in contact.”
