Sandringham Estate: police examine human remains near Royal home (Telegraph)
Daily Mail decides to speculate a bit:
much more at the links, the Mail having more pictures, of course; the Telegraph's is the superior written account
No word yet on whether said remains became remains because of murderous violence or what-have-you. (And thus I'm listing this for now in Up to the Minute instead of Crimes in the News.)A major police inquiry was launched after a dog walker discovered the remains on New Years Day just a mile from the Royal Stud and less than two miles from the estates main residence.
Officers are carrying out a detailed search throughout the area of woodland in Anmer, near Kings Lynn, which is east of Sandringham House, where members of the Royal Family had gathered.
The operation was kept secret for more than 24 hours as detectives worked to establish how remains were found to be located so close to the Royal residence. A large area of the woodland had been cordoned off.
The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, who are currently staying on the 20,000-acre (8,000-hectare) estate for their Christmas break, were informed of the discovery on Monday night.

And it also informs us that....Chairman of Norfolk Ramblers Mike Berman said: I believe [the tiny Norfolk village of] Anmer did once have a burial site which is no longer used so perhaps that may shed some light on the discovery.
Mystery as 'human remains' are found by dog walker in woodland on Sandringham estate (Daily Mail)---
Last March, the body of an American loner obsessed with the Queen was found 100 yards from Buckingham Palace.
Robert Moore, 69, had set up camp on a tiny island on the lake in St Jamess Park. He arrived in the UK in 2007 and appeared to have lived in the park until his death around a year later.
