An inquest into the death of a woman who fell off her horse after it became spooked has been referred to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).

Jayne Hunt, 55, from Melksham, Wiltshire, was riding her horse Moomin down Bollards Hill near Seend on 9 July 2023. Police said she was apparently startled by a motorcycle near a blind bend.

David Ridley, HM Senior Coroner for Wiltshire and Swindon, made the decision to refer the case to the CPS over inconsistencies in evidence.

A two-day inquest at the coroner’s court was due to begin on Wednesday.
