A 59-year-old man has been jailed after going on a burglary spree in rural Cheshire.
Andrew Winter targeted homes in villages near Nantwich and Whitchurch, including Wrenbury and Tilstone Fernall.
Winter, 59, of St Mary’s Street, Whitchurch pleaded guilty to attempted burglary with intent to steal, 10 counts of burglary other than a dwelling, burglary, and theft from the person of another at an earlier hearing.
Winter was sentenced to two years four months and 26 days.
The charges relate to offences occurring in the rural areas of Chester between December 6th 2024 and July 1st 2025.
Winter targeted sheds and outbuildings across Malpas, Allstretton, Chester, Tilstone Fernall, Tiverton, Whitchurch and Wrenbury.
He stole a range of items from bicycles and garden equipment and tools to watering cans and trophies.
Sgt Roy Wellings, from the Chester Local Policing Proactive Team, said: “Winter was prolific and appeared to be indiscriminate in what he stole.
“It appears that if it wasn’t nailed down he took it.
“He’s now paying the price for his actions.”
