A 65-YEAR-OLD man was dead for at least two weeks before anyone realised.
Leslie Applegate, of Dursley Road, Trowbridge, was discovered slumped dead in a dining room chair in November after neighbours realised they had not seen him for at least two weeks.
At an inquest in Salisbury on Tuesday the court heard there had been no suspicious circumstances but the body was too decomposed to ascertain a clinical cause of death.
Verdict: Natural causes
