A pal of Nicola Bulley is attempting to dispel rumours about a house by the River Wyre that people have wrongly labelled as "abandoned", to stop people trying to search it.
Mum-of-two Nicola vanished while walking her dog by the river in St Michael's on Wyre, Lancashire, close to two weeks ago on January 27.
Her phone was found on a bench by the waterside and had recently connected to a work call. Her dog Willow was running loose.
