The baby was taken to hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.

Detective Inspector Richard Dixey, of the Major Crime Investigation Team at Dorset Police, told the Daily Echo: ‘Every child who dies suddenly has the right to have their unexplained death fully investigated so the cause can be identified.

‘The cause of death has not been determined at this stage and an initial post-mortem examination is being carried out today.

‘We are currently carrying out a range of inquiries in order to establish the full circumstances surrounding the very tragic death of this baby girl.

‘I would ask that her family is given privacy at this extremely difficult time.’

Neighbours said they knew that a child had died but were not aware of the circumstances.
