Stand and Deliver

Submitted by JMB on Fri 07/Aug/2009

Via Avon & Somerset Constabulary:

Police are appealing for witnesses after the theft of a horse drawn carriage in Templecombe near Wincanton.
The carriage was stolen sometime between Sunday 19th July and Sunday 2nd August 2009 from a field in Shaftesbury Road, Henstridge, Tenplecombe. […]

The carriage is very distinctive and has a black metal chassis with black shaft, black rubber tyres, silver spoked wheels and a cherry red wooden frame.

It has no seat and a bucket carriage. The owners are keen to recover the carriage as it is handmade and unique.

(Alright, so Dick Turpin stole the possessions of the passengers, not the coaches, but I’m sure one of the many English Highwaymen must have made the intellectual leap from robbery to grand theft equine)
