Human remains were discovered by walkers out for a stroll on Sunday afternoon.

The body was found in a field near Biggin Hill airport in Bromley, south-east London.

The spot, which has no residential properties for around a mile, has been cordoned off as a probe is launched.

The case is currently being treated as ‘unexplained’ as experts work to identify the body.

Officers haven’t yet been able to inform relatives of the tragedy.

‘Officers are working to identify the deceased and inform next of kin. The death is currently being treated as unexplained.

‘A post-mortem examination will be held in due course. 

‘No arrests at this time; enquiries are ongoing. A crime scene remains in place.’
