I have put this on General board but think it should be on here also,

In the Oldham section of the MLFHS it states that on 16 Dec 2007 the safe in the Oldham Unitarian Chapel was stolen it contain records of Births, Marriages and Burials going back 150+ years. The silverware was also taken along with the safe.

It appears they were spotted on CCTV using a key and couldn't open the safe so they came back later with equipment to remove the safe.
