Police who are still working to identify a woman who died near the M56 last week have released photos of her clothing and belongings.
The woman was found at the Thorley Lane over bridge, leading to junction 5 in the early hours of Monday morning
Despite the best efforts of emergency services, the woman sadly died. Her death is not currently being treated as suspicious but her identity remains unknown.
Photos of clothing and possessions which were found with her have now been released, with officers hoping that the woman’s next-of-kin may recognise what she was wearing.
As detailed in an earlier appeal, the woman is described as white, 5’3” tall, with shoulder length, mousey brown hair, which is straight and greying in places. Her age was in the region of 40s – 60s. She was wearing pink nail varnish.
In addition, she was wearing pink and brown tortoise shell spectacles, while a patterned, brown-coloured headband and a wristwatch with a black leather strap were also located.
Detective Sergeant Steven Rogers, of GMP’s Trafford district, said: “We are continuing our work to identify the woman and we hope that these new photos may help jog people’s memories and assist with our work.
“We will use everything available to us as we carry on with our enquiries to unite this woman with her next-of-kin. We are still appealing for information and ask anyone who may know something to please get in touch.”
