Police have been called to a building site following reports that bones were discovered today.

Officers were called at 12.15pm to the site in Fawkham, Kent following the discovery.

Kent Police refused to speculate about the discovery today but said tests are being carried out to determine if the bones are human or animal bones.

The bones were found less than three miles from where mother-of-five Sarah Wellgreen vanished in October last year.  

Taxi driver Ben Lacomba was found guilty of murdering the missing 46-year-old but still refuses to say where her body is hidden despite being jailed for life.

Police confirmed this afternoon the remains were animal bones, and not in any way related to the search for the body of Ms Wellgreen.
