Det Supt Paul Barton said 47-year-old Pennie Anne Davis suffered "multiple stab wounds"

A mother of five found dead in a field in the New Forest was stabbed to death, police have said.

Detectives believe Penelope Anne Davis, 47, known as Pennie, was tending to her horses when she was attacked on Tuesday. Her body was found on Ley Green Farm in Beaulieu by her husband.

The death is being treated as murder but police said there was "no obvious suspect".

Officers are searching a nearby farmhouse.

In a news conference held near the scene, Det Supt Paul Barton from Hampshire Constabulary said: "As you can imagine her husband is extremely traumatised at the moment.

"People are going to be extremely worried until we catch this person, I ask them to be vigilant and we will be stepping up patrols in the area."

He would not comment when asked whether a murder weapon had been found.

Police said Mrs Davis, who worked in a local supermarket, died at the scene.

A post-mortem examination found the cause of death was multiple stab wounds.

Mrs Davis visited the field on a daily basis to tend to her horses, where her husband would meet her, police said.

Det Supt Barton appealed for anyone who had been in the area between 14:00 and 17:00 BST on Tuesday, including tourists travelling on an open-top bus which does a circuit of the area, to contact with them.

He said: "This is a rural location but it is extremely busy with local people using it as a short cut to Lyndhurst and many tourists passing through."

A tent is currently in place to preserve the crime scene and forensic officers have begun a finger-tip search of the field where Mrs Davis was found.

No arrests have been made.
