The Pheasant at Neenton, near Bridgnorth, which was saved from permanent closure in 2014 after it was bought by a community group, said three men were spotted taking three drums of oil on Friday morning at around 7am.

The thieves are said to have made off in a Citroen Picasso sporting false number plates.

In a Facebook post, the pub said: "We just wanted to let everyone know in the area to keep an eye out and to make sure items are locked up, we will also be putting extra security measures in place as well."
