Police have revealed a series of items found along with mystery human bones close to train tracks. Forensics made the discovery on December 7 and predict that the remains could've been lying there for more than seven years.
Detectives are continuing to try and identify the person, thought to be a male and at least 50-years-old. He is understood to have been white, and around 5'7" tall. Anthropological exams identified they could be from the UK, Europe, Indian Subcontinent, North Africa or the Middle East.
On December 7, officers were called to reports of human bones found near Brackley Park in Hull. The area was cordoned off while specialist teams conducted a search of the scene and found the skeletal remains of one person.

They were wearing size seven Hush Puppies shoes, dark brown trousers with a brown belt, a dark-coloured Henley and Knight Jacket, and a grey and black striped jumper.
In their possession, found at the scene was a 'New Zealand' keyring with a kiwi bird image, and two Sekonda wrist watches.
British Transport Police have now released images of the items in hope that someone might recognise them and come forward to assist the ongoing investigation.
Forensic work is continuing along with missing person enquiries to identify the person, how they came to be at the location and how they died.
