Detective Superintendent Jon Groves, of West Mercia police, leading the inquiry, said the third body had not been identified.
“Due to its position, it will take some time to remove,” he said in a statement. “We are hoping to get it out by the end of today (Monday). “A forensic archaeologist is due to visit the site this morning to offer specialist advice to those working to recover the body.”
