Jewellery was taken from a home in Mope Lane, Wickham Bishops, after a burglary in February 18, and on March 5, watches, jewellery and a safe containing a diamond ring were stolen from a house in Robinhood End, Stambourne.

Pc David Smith said: “These e-fit images are of two members of a three-person gang responsible for burglaries in the Uttlesford and Braintree area.

“They have been targeting large, rural properties, forcing their way through electric gates, and stealing jewellery from inside.

“Their getaway vehicle has been a dark grey or black Audi S5 2010/2011 model, with silver wing mirrors. It had a cloned number plate with the index EJ62 VEW.
