Two paintings have been stolen from the Blyth Centre Gallery in the Sherfield Building, according to Naomi Anderson-Eyles, the centre’s administrator.

“We are offering an amnesty to whoever took the paintings. Could you please return them to security, the police or myself?” she said.

Anderson-Eyles urged students to notify security if they “saw anyone suspicious inspecting or removing paintings from the walls”.

The Metropolitan Police have opened a report to investigate the crime.
