Police are appealing for information after 20 statues were stolen from an estate in Moreton-in-Marsh last month.
The statues, some of which had been at the property for more than 70 years, were taken between 10am on Sunday 24 July and midday on Tuesday 26 July.
The victim had been away for a few days and did not discover the theft until returning home.
The items, which are all lead based, have an estimated total value of around £19,000. The items are heavy and would need two or three people to move them.
Offenders had clearly tried to move certain items but, due to their size and weight, they have had to dump them.
Anyone who saw anything suspicious or who may have any other information is asked to contact Gloucestershire Constabulary through the website, quoting incident 239 of 26 July: https://www.gloucestershire.police.uk/contact/af/contact-us/us/a-crime-that-has-already-been-reported/
