Hey, something happened near Gravesend Road. Police searched some woods for three days. They started looking around noon Sunday. The area was near Vigo and Wrotham, with the search focused on some odd-looking dirt.

Blue tarps went up along the A227 while cops and specialists searched the woodland area. They closed the road during the search. Yesterday, police said they studied the soil, but nothing suspicious turned up in the end.

The road closed between Fairseat Lane and Vigo Hill. It was shut for over 30 hours and finally reopened Monday after 6 PM. Drivers faced major detours using the A20, A228, M2, and A227, which caused big traffic backups.

Today, the police gave another update. Forensic experts checked the woods thoroughly and found nothing out of the ordinary. The road was closed Monday due to suspicion. Now, police thank locals for their patience.

The woodland sits in the North Downs. There are many paths nearby, and Pilgrims Way is also in that area. People want to know if they found anything at all. They also wonder if it links to other cases.
