Police are appealing for information after a number of items, including First World War medals, were stolen from a house in Tunbridge Wells.

The burglary in Parkwood Close happened between 3.30pm and 9.50pm on Saturday, September 9.

The medals had belonged to the victim's grandfather. They had 'Pte A J Benham' and 'G/95374 Middlesex Regiment' inscribed on them.

A window was smashed in the kitchen to gain entry to the house, and various electrical items, jewellery, and cash, were also taken.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Jerry Chapman said: "I am very keen to track down the person responsible for this incident, but also to reunite the victim with the medals earned by her late grandfather that are of high sentimental value."
