Two women's bodies have been discovered in separate incidents in north west Wales, one on the beach at Rhos on Sea, and the other in the sea off Anglesey.

North Police are trying to identify the woman whose body was found at Rhos-on-Sea in Conwy county.

A member of the public made the find, which is not being treated as suspicious, opposite the Cayley embankment.

The other body was retrieved from the sea by Moelfre lifeboat.

It was spotted by a passing vessel.

The coroner has been informed in both cases. No more details have been made available.

I went past just after the ambulance and coastguard turned up, but curiously no police.

Update on body found on beach

Police have named the woman whose body was found on a beach in Conwy as Jane Kelly, 43, from Old Colwyn.

Detective Sergeant Craig Adshead said that Ms Kelly was discovered by a member of the public on Tuesday near the Cayley embankment at Rhos-on-Sea.

The North east Wales deputy coroner John Gittins has opened and adjourned a hearing into the death.

DS Adshead said: "Further tests are due to be carried out to determine the cause of Ms Kelly's death but there does not appear to be any suspicious circumstances.

"We are also asking for anyone who was on the sea front in the Rhos On Sea to Old Colwyn area during the early hours of Tuesday 15th February and saw a woman wearing black boots, blue jeans and an orange vest type top to contact the Coroner's Officer on 01745 588607."

Yesterday morning, near Rhos point there were a dozen or so men, clad in muddied orange suits stacking sacks and gathering some type of shell fish. Anyone satisfy my curiosity? What do they gather there?

The empty shop opposite Fortes (once Flair of Rhos On Sea) is to become the Sunset Club, a retailer of surf and snow wear. They presently have a shop at 5 High Street, Conwy.

Saw this nice old Silver Star coach parked on the Prom in Rhos a few days ago. Reg was LPT 328.
