Mystery surrounds the identity of a woman whose body was found washed up on Seaford Beach.

Police hope this picture of the woman's clothes may help them find out who she was.

Police say without a name they cannot check dental records and it will take up to six weeks to complete fingerprint checks.

A police spokesman said: "The National Missing Persons Register has also checked, but so far no progress has been made."

The woman, whose body was found on Easter Sunday, was 5ft 1in to 5ft 5in tall and slim with long dark hair.

She wore blue jeans, brown shoes, a beige jumper and grey fleece. She was not wearing jewellery.

Police believe the woman had been in the sea for a few hours prior to being found by a member of the public.

They are not treating her death as suspicious.

Anyone who recognises the clothes or has other information should call Sussex Police on 0845 6070999 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
