A man and two women have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a 40-year-old woman was found dead in a house.

She was discovered unconscious in the property on Harrowby Road, Birkenhead, at about 23:00 GMT on Thursday, Merseyside Police said.

Officers gave her CPR until paramedics arrived who pronounced her dead at the scene.

A 47-year-old man and two women, both 45, from Wirral, are being questioned in police custody.

The force said the woman's death was being treated as unexplained and a search was under way to trace the victim's family.

Insp Peter Rexwinkel said officers will carry out house-to-house and CCTV inquiries to "establish exactly what happened."

He urged residents who have doorbell or CCTV footage from around 22:00 on 14 March to get in touch.

A post-mortem examination will take place later to establish the woman's cause of death.
