A man has admitted murdering a 96-year-old woman who was found dead by firefighters responding to a house blaze.

Joshua Powell was charged with murder in May last year following the discovery of Emma Finch's body in Liss, Hampshire.

Emergency services attended the fire at an address in Mill Road on 17 May 2024 and later confirmed the identity of the victim.

Mr Powell, of Elmfield Court, Lindford, appeared at Portsmouth Crown Court on Friday where he pleaded guilty. He will be sentenced on 25 July.
