**Why it matters:** The confirmation provides reassurance to local residents after the woman's body was found by a member of the public, prompting a police investigation and temporary park closure.

**The details:** Officers were called at 05:50 on Wednesday, 27 August, after a member of the public reported finding a woman lying on the ground in the recreation ground. Ambulance crews attended, but the woman was declared deceased just over 30 minutes later.

A Home Office post-mortem examination was conducted today, Thursday 28 August, though the cause of death remains unascertained and further tests are required.

**What's next:** Police enquiries will continue as a file is prepared for the Coroner. Officers are still seeking information from anyone who may have relevant details about the incident.

**The big picture:** Police scenes have now been lifted from Sherrington Road Recreation Ground and the park has reopened to the public following the completion of initial enquiries.

**The bottom line:** Anyone with information about the incident should contact South CID at Landmark House in Ipswich, quoting reference 37/48426/25, through:
