The vicar of a church dubbed the "Cathedral of Romney Marsh" has reportedly said he would like to see the heads of thieves who stole valuable lead from the roof of his historic church stuck on stakes.
 


Lead worth £20,000 was snatched from the roof of St George’s in Ivychurch, Romney Marsh, last week.

Speaking to Kent on Sunday, the Rev Jim Field was reported as saying: “I know as a vicar I should not be saying this, but if they catch whoever did this, I want their heads on stakes outside."

“I can’t believe this church has been attacked again."

Anyone with information about the theft is asked to contact police on 01303 289180 or Kent CrimeStoppers, in confidence, on 0800 555111.
