Detectives launched an investigation following a report of assault at the address on Pear Avenue around 9.30pm on Saturday 16th September 2023. Emergency services attended and sadly, a 55 year old woman was seriously injured and died 2 days later. A murder inquiry has now been launched.

I would like to appeal for any information that anyone has that may assist the investigation.

This could include personal knowledge of the offence or offender.

This could include any private CCTV/ Ring doorbell or Dash cam footage of any suspicious activity in that area between these times.

Also direct witnesses who were in the area at that time and saw or heard suspicious activity on Pear Avenue

We believe that at least one offender walked on foot to and from this address during these times.

We are keen to appeal to local people on Pear Avenue but also Cherry Avenue, Walnut Avenue, Thompson Drive, Topping Fold Road and Hewart Drive
