A man whose body was found on Minster beach last Thursday has been named as a local man.

Lewis O'Neill-Smith was 19, and of Sunset Close, Eastchurch.

Police were called to the scene at just after 10.50am, but it wasn't clear if he had been in the water or not.

The area at the end of The Leas, past the Little Oyster, was taped off by police.
