Mystery surrounds dumped coffin

Nobody has come forward to claim the coffin

The search is on for the mystery owner of a coffin which was abandoned in a road in Norwich.

Residents living in the city's Old Palace Road discovered the coffin, complete with a red silk lining, earlier this week.

The brown wooden coffin was found propped up against a fence alongside bins waiting to be collected.

There was no clue as to where it came from and so far nobody has come forward to claim it.
