Police investigating abuse claims at a former children's home on Jersey are to search a second site.
Around 100 people have claimed that they were abused at the Haut de la Garenne home.
The focus of the inquiry will now shift to a second, as yet undisclosed, location believed to be elsewhere on the Channel island.
Grim task: Police clear away an area of land at the rear of the Haut De La Garenne home in Jersey earlier this year
Haut de la Garenne became the focus of Britain's biggest abuse investigation after fragments of what was thought to be a child's skull were found in February.
Police excavated four secret underground chambers at the institution and found shackles, a large bloodstained bath and children's teeth.
Police said there are more than 40 suspects, and three men have been charged with sex abuse offences as part of the inquiry.
