Mr Nutting said a van pulled up in the Battlefield area in spring and dropped off the children.

Specialist conservators working for English Heritage are beginning begin vital repair work on the Iron Bridge, so-named as it was the first in the world to be made of cast iron.
It marked a turning point in British engineering and became a symbol for the Industrial Revolution.
Image source, PASurveys have shown the structure is under threat from cracking due to stresses in the ironwork dating from the original construction, ground movement over the centuries and an earthquake in the 19th Century which pushed the two sides of the gorge it spans closer together.
Experts say the bridge is now 305mm (one foot) narrower and the apex 100mm (3.9in) higher than when it was built.
Image source, PAWith major scaffolding in place around the bridge, English Heritage will clean, conserve, repair and where necessary reinforce the iron radials and braces holding it together, deck plates and wedges and the main iron arch.
It will also be repainted to protect it for the future.

The government is being asked to spend £500,000 on a so-called social prescribing scheme in Shropshire.
It sees GPs referring patients with no specific medical problem to groups such as exercise classes, gardening or art programmes.
It's already running in Oswestry but health bosses want to roll it out across the county.
Dr Kevin Lewis at Shropshire Council's Health Team said it was another "tool" for GPs, who sometimes felt pressured to write a prescription for medication.

The Hermann Reemtsma Foundation has made a one million euro donation to repair work on the bridge.
Read MoreThe £3.6m project to conserve Shropshire's Iron Bridge was given a welcome boost thanks to a one million euro (£880,000) donation from a German foundation.
"Not only do we admire the Iron Bridge as an important technical landmark, but we also see it as a potent reminder of our continent's common cultural roots and values," Jochen Muennich of the Hermann Reemtsma Foundation said.
Kate Mavor, English Heritage's chief executive, said: "The Iron Bridge is one of the most important - if not the most important - bridges ever built."
As well as stresses in the pioneering, but unrefined, ironwork, the bridge was also damaged in an earthquake in the 19th Century.
Thanks to the latest donation, just £25,000 is now needed to complete the work - English Heritage has launched a crowdfunding page to raise the money.
