Burglars broke into a farm on the estate surrounding Windsor Castle last month and stole two vehicles, Thames Valley Police has said.<\/b><\/p>\n

The break-in, first reported in the Sun newspaper<\/a>, was at a farm on the Windsor estate which also includes residences of the Royal Family.<\/p>\n

The Prince and Princess of Wales were reported to be at their house on the estate during the night-time burglary, but Kensington Palace has not commented.<\/p>\n

A pick-up truck and quad bike were stolen from the farm and no arrests have been made so far, according to the police.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

King Charles and Queen Camilla were not at Windsor Castle when the farm raid took place.<\/p>\n

Prince William and Catherine live with their three children in Adelaide Cottage, not far from Windsor Castle.<\/p>\n

Senior royals have their own police protection – and there is no suggestion of any direct danger from the incident.<\/p>\n

Royal Lodge, another residence in Windsor, occupied by the Duke of York, has its own security arrangements – said to cost several million pounds per year.<\/p>\n

The burglary took place at around 23:45 on Sunday 13 October, and was reported to have involved scaling a six-foot perimeter fence and escaping by breaking through a gate with a stolen vehicle.<\/p>\n

“Offenders entered a farm building and made off with a black Isuzu pick-up and a red quad bike. They then made off towards the Old Windsor\/Datchet area,” said the statement from Thames Valley police.<\/p>\n

“No arrests have been made at this stage and an investigation is ongoing.” <\/p>\n

There have been previous security incidents at Windsor. On Christmas Day in 2021 an intruder was arrested in the grounds of Windsor Castle.<\/p>\n

Jaswant Singh Chail, who had been armed with a crossbow, was later jailed for nine years<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 15,800-acre Windsor estate, west of London, includes working farms, conservation areas, Windsor Great Park and famous royal landmarks, such as Windsor Castle.<\/p>\n

Last year Windsor Castle was the UK’s most popular royal tourist attraction, with 1.4 million visitors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
