Their bodies will remain at the scene until a preliminary technical examination is completed today.

Two bodies have been discovered at a house in County Kerry.

The remains of a man and a woman were found in Glenbeigh this morning.

Gardaí say they're investigating all of the circumstances behind this discovery.

Early indications suggest the remains of the man and woman - both believed to have been in their 50s - may have gone undiscovered since late last year.

Their bodies will remain at the scene until a preliminary technical examination is completed today.

Post-mortem exams will be carried out later, the results of which will determine the course of the Garda investigation.
