A man woke last month to find his entire front lawn missing.

Ipswich resident Steve Woolnough was left with only a large patch of dirt where his 100-square-foot artificial grass lawn should be.



The 52-year-old father of two told The Sun: "I'm absolutely seething over it, I really am. How dare someone steal what I have had to work hard for?

"You try and make your house look nice and someone comes along and steals what you have got."

The lawn was reportedly stolen overnight on March 19.

A spokesperson for Suffolk Police said: "It would have taken some time to remove such a large quantity of Astro Turf from this garden and needed a vehicle to take it away."

Woolnough said at the time that the artificial grass would cost about £250 to replace.

It was reported yesterday that local firm Citigrass had replaced the lawn free of charge, and Woolnough had installed CCTV at his house to prevent further thefts.
