A witch monument which has connections to the Moors murderers has been cordoned off after a woman was found dead on a road.

Officers investigating the death of Annalise Johnstone have taped off the Maggie Wall memorial near Dunning in Perth and Kinross.

The 22-year-old was found dead on the B8062 near Auchterarder in Perthshire on Thursday, May 10.

The memorial, dedicated to a 17th century witch, is one of more than five locations being investigated by the police.

Ian Brady and Myra Hindley visited the memorial during their killing spree between July 1963 and October 1965.

The pair stood next to the monument during a holiday to Scotland in 1965. Brady is also understood to have visited the site as a child.

STV News understands officers are carrying out investigations at more than five other sites including flats in Auchterarder and Ardrossan.

A Police Scotland spokesman said: "We are conducting a number of enquiries at various locations across Tayside."
