A woman has been found dead with stab wounds, an hour after the bodies of her husband and two sons were discovered at the foot of cliffs in East Sussex.

Police found the woman, in her 40s, at the family home in Twickenham, south-west London, shortly before 18:00 GMT on Monday.

Her death is being treated as murder.

Sussex Police were called after three bodies - thought to be the woman's sons, aged seven and 10, and husband, 57 - were found at Birling Gap beach.

Scotland Yard said they were not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.
