Hide AdPolice said they were following new lines of enquiry in the case and have released a new picture of Elsie and a map tracing her final movements.
Detectives now want to trace a man in a white coat who was seen riding a bike near close to scene on the day of the murder.
He was not interviewed during original police investigation.
They also believe Elsie may have been seeing somebody in secret - possibly a boyfriend - during the weeks before her death and are keen to identify that person.
