The body of a woman in her 50s has been recovered from the shoreline near Portreath Beach in Cornwall.
Emergency services were called to the area off Lighthouse Hill at around 3.10pm on Monday, October 5, following reports that a body had been found.
HM Coastguard sent rescue teams from Portreath and St Agnes, alongside the St Agnes RNLI lifeboat, a Coastguard helicopter and South Western Ambulance Service.
Devon and Cornwall Police also attended.
