A WOMAN’S body has been found in a pond near Ebbw Vale, prompting an investigation by emergency services last week.
Police conducted a search last Friday (Nov 1) at Cardi Pond, a body of water located within Sirhowy Hill Woodlands, a popular area connecting Ebbw Vale and Tredegar. The pond sits near the Ebbw Vale entrance to the woods on Gwaun Helyg Road, close to Sirhowy Woods.
A spokesperson for Gwent Police said: “The body of a woman was found in Cardi Pond, Blaenau Gwent on the morning of November 1. The death is not being treated as suspicious.”
The woman’s family is appealing for assistance from the public to locate her missing phone, believed to still be in the woods. In an online post, a family member said: “If someone sees or has seen my mother’s phone, it’s a Samsung with a blue and black phone case—please return it.”
