The jury in the trial of the man accused of murdering five-year-old April Jones in a sexually motivated attack has visited his home.
Mark Bridger, 47, from Ceinws, Powys, denies abducting and murdering April, who disappeared near her home in Machynlleth on 1 October 2012.
Jurors arrived to see key locations in connection with the case before heading to the defendant's home nearby.
Prosecutors have told Mold Crown Court that blood found there was April's.
The jury spent two-and-a half hours in the Machynlleth area until about 14:00 BST and proceedings ended for the day. The trial will continue on Friday.
At lunchtime on Thursday, the jury was taken to the defendant's cottage by coach and entered four at a time.
The first of the jury members later emerged from the house with two police officers standing nearby, preventing anyone approaching. Other jury members stood in the front garden awaiting their turn.
They spent up to 10 minutes inside the cottage, which stands at the top of the village, up a slight hill and near the river Dulas.
