A force spokesman said: "They were broken into at some point overnight on October 8 into October 9. The suspects stole a large number of electrical items.
"They would have needed a vehicle to transport the bulky items.
"We’re appealing for information from residents who live in the Germany Beck area, and anyone who has CCTV/doorbell footage in the immediate area that may have captured any individuals or vehicles coming onto and leaving the site during the those times."
