The village church at Sutton, Essex, is being barred and bolted during week days for the: rest of the summer as a result of several cases of damage and theft which the police have been investigating. An attempt was made to force an iron chest in which documents dating from Xorman days are kept. This was discovered when a churchwarden found a broken key in the lock. On another occasion the altar cross was thrown down and smashed. Other church furniture was damaged, the alms box was rifled, and hymn hooka were thrown about.
