Skeletal remains found in former car park

Skeletal remains, thought to be human, have been found on a construction site in Staffordshire.

A police cordon has been put in place around part of The Midway - a former car park - in Newcastle-under-Lyme while officers investigate.

The force said it was alerted early on Wednesday afternoon.

Developer Capital & Centric is currently turning the 1960s multi-storey car park site into 111 flats.
