Where do you live Pete? Bloody hell!
On the farm we have quite a few trail cams set up and they've helped with a handful of charges laid by the local cop. Dad also never has less than 15 dogs at one time and they are trained to bark at strange vehicles or people driving up the road (a no exit one) or the drive. A couple of the big huntaways would sort you out pretty quick if you upset them too much. Add the dogs to motion sensors and alarms and flood lights that light up the workshop yard area like daylight. Will only stop 'honest' burglars though, but helps with insurance etc.
Our new community I have moved to seems to be fairly friendly, we have had a couple of the older neighbours knock on our door to let us know we had visitors while we were obviously away. Both times they were just mates, but good to know the neighbours have nothing better to do than keep an eye on the new place! If we go away for extended time I set up a trail cam just for evidence sake.
