Bouquets of flowers have been placed in front of a house where a woman was found dead in Blackburn at the weekend.
Floral tributes have been left at the front of the house in Primrose Terrace where officers found the body of Charlotte Wilcock.
Police were called to the street at about 7.55am on Saturday (March 4) to reports of a serious assault but they tragically found the 31-year-old's body when they arrived.
