The entire village, said to have inspired Sir Walter Scott's classic novel Ivanhoe, was placed in lockdown after the tragedy in a secluded corner of the community. Officers were called to the scene at around 8pm amid reports of a "dispute" taking place inside the home. They then tragically discovered the woman's lifeless body. Residents said what happened was still a mystery and no one knew if the two people involved were a couple or whether they were local. It is understood they had only recently moved in after the cottages were recently upgraded and let to new tenants. Three terraced houses remained inside the police cordon until yesterday. All three cottages within the crime scene are rented properties which changed hands regularly, according to locals. The scene was guarded by three uniformed officers while two detectives continued to make inquiries inside the houses. The two cottages just outside the cordon are currently empty, having been recently sold. Nicky Kenyon, the only resident of the row of terraced homes living outside the cordon, said: 'It is a leafy village which has been my family home. 'I was out with the dogs when it happened. We have not got a clue who the victim was. I think those are all rented properties. 'It was all cordoned off on Saturday night - the entire village. There was nothing in the village apart from police cars. 'When I got back with the dogs I could not drive down the road to my house. 'One young couple onl){kind=link}
