A number of officers are still working at a cordon in Festival Park in Etruria, Stoke-on-Trent today (Tuesday 4 March) after the remains of a human skeleton were discovered.
Officers have been there since they were called at 3.40pm on Sunday (2 March) when someone came across the skeleton in the area.
Detectives and forensic teams, including an anthropologist, a botanist and an archaeologist, have been carrying out a thorough inspection of the scene since the cordon was put in place.
They expect the scene to stay in place until at least until tomorrow (Wednesday 5 March).
