A MAN with a history of alcoholism died after falling at his Burnley home, an inquest heard.

Coroner's officer PC Bob Wilson appealed for the family of Andrew Bell, 43, to come forward because his next of kin had not been told of his death.

He died in Burnley General Hospital on March 16 after falling at his Waterbarn Street home.

A post mortem examination found that Mr Bell died of a head injury.

However, investigators have not been able to find Mr Bell's next of kin.
