A man has been arrested after a woman was found dead at a house in Croydon.

The 58-year-old woman, who has not been named, is a well-known mum from the local area, Metro understands.

She was found dead at a house on Towpath Way in south London around 5am on Saturday.

A local shopkeeper told Metro: ‘We’re fairly upset, she was part of the community. Since 1995 she’s been part of the estate I think.
