The thieves stole angle grinders, Bosch power tools, drills, a Stihl saw, a petrol hedge trimmer, a chainsaw, a seven piece Makita tool kit and a plane.
PC Jayne Lambert said: “If you can identify the people responsible for this theft I urge you to contact the police or Crimestoppers straight away.
