Homes targeted in William Tyrell search

Police have visited two homes and spoken with the occupants in the NSW town of Kendall, where William Tyrell disappeared four months ago.

Two properties in the NSW mid-north coast town of Kendall have been searched by police investigating the mysterious disappearance of toddler William Tyrell.

Detectives visited two locations in the small town on Tuesday, more than four months after three-year-old William vanished.

"Police are conducting inquiries and are speaking with a number of people as the search for William Tyrrell continues," a police spokesman said on Tuesday night.

"No further details are available at this time."

There have been no arrests and William is still missing.

Police had previously searched every nook and cranny of the 21 houses in the estate where William disappeared while playing in his grandmother's backyard on September 12.

An extensive search of surrounding bushland and waterways failed to find any trace of William, who went missing in his favourite Spider-Man costume.

Superintendent Paul Fehon, who is leading the investigation, has previously said if the little boy met misadventure, police would have found something by now.

"We are completely open to any possibility, including human intervention," he said late last year.

"If that has occurred, somebody knows something."

Anyone with information can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
