Bodies of woman and man found in Bayston Hill shed
BBCTwo bodies have been found in a shed in a village outside Shrewsbury, police have said.
A woman, 80, and an 84-year-old man, were found at an address in Newbrook Drive in Bayston Hill at about 23:00 BST on Thursday, after concerns were raised for their welfare.
The deaths are currently being treated as unexplained and an investigation has been launched by West Mercia Police.
Officers said they did not believe anyone else was involved.
West Midlands Ambulance Service said crews quickly discovered nothing could be done to save the pair and they were confirmed dead at the scene.
The discovery has shaken members of the "quiet" and calm community.
Reverend Peter Hubbard of the nearby Christ Church Bayston Hill said: "There will be genuine shock and surprise and concern for the wider family.
"People will be thinking of them and we will be praying for them certainly on Sunday here."
Maggie Williams, who said she regularly walked her dogs past Newbrook Drive, said she was also shocked.
"Nothing happens in Bayston Hill, it's such a quiet area especially around here."
