The body of a woman has been found in Dorset in the search for a missing woman last seen in Budleigh Salterton.
Police have confirmed the body of a woman was located in the water at Portland, in Dorset, at around 10.40am on Tuesday (September 15).
Formal identification is yet to take place but the family of Julia Williams have been informed of the discovery.
Julia, 24, from Truro, has been missing since the early hours of Saturday, September 5.
