A fire amid the historical 'net huts' of Hastings' fishing village, Rock A' Nore-a local tourist attraction-exposes the mummified remains of a small and unidentifiable body that may well have been concealed inside for quite some time.
Is this the body of an unfortunate rough sleeper? An overdosed drug addict? A desperate and nameless immigrant... or, an unresolved misper sitting on East Sussex Police Force's LEDS database?
