Police are investigating the unexplained death of a man in Nelson.
Around 8pm last night, Police conducting an unrelated visit to an address on Suffolk Road, Stoke became aware of a deceased person at that location.
The man's body appears to have been there for some time, and the circumstances are unclear at this stage.
Police will be engaging ESR to assist with a full scene examination.
