    Sincerely hope they get caught. Unbelievable, how incredibly selfish these people are, removing part of history.

    Gosh, yet another very sad video, I cannot believe how these people can sleep at night. I hope that somehow the stones can be replaced and protected from these dreadful people. Love from Denmark 🥰

    What’s sad, is that it’s obviously known and being restored by the media coverage but didn’t care. People don’t have respect for other peoples hard work and belongings.

      Thanks Sally - the good news is we're well on our way to bringing everything back to the how it should be! 😀

    What do they do with stolen flagstones?
    Is there a market for hot flagstones & wouldn't the buyer have to know the history of the stones to make them valuable? ❤️🙏

      Hi, unfortunately they sell them on as people are always looking to buy. The good news is that the authorities take it very seriously as a Heritage Crime and have been cracking down on it recently as it was becoming a wide spread problem.

    Too many people are just horrible, what the h ell is wrong with them. I always wonder what kind of people raise children who end up bad adults; I guess bad parents, who had bad parents themselves. Seems none of them know what self respect and decency is.

Your intention to create a cultural centre for the arts and giving the local community the chance to learn is a really important. Hope your journey from America to England shall have been an intresting adventure. Best of luck to you.

      Hi Renae - yes several suspects were caught and jailed who took flagstones from numerous old churches and historic sites in the region. We made a follow up video called 'Theft Update' if you'd like to check it out. Thanks!
