The construction of the original part of the Abbey is believed to have begun in 1083 with additional parts added in later centuries. Therefore, at possibly nearly 1,000 years old, the panel is of great historic significance, with an estimated financial value of around £20,000. A spokesman for West Mercia Police said:"Finding the panel is great news but we’d like to catch the thieves too.
