Looks like Quba is a Devonian brand, good chance she's local, not like that French or Belgian lady who washed up a while ago from over the channel.

If she lives alone and keeps to herself, no one may know she is missing yet. It is a terrible but true fact that many people from middle age and upward are isolated, and unless they have regular family, social, religious or care connections, they can be and are not missed until something happens to make it clear they are not okay.

There are (IMO) a lot of recently solved doe cases where the person (older/middle aged) went disappeared basically in their own neighborhood and weren't identified for this reason.

This is somewhat local to me. JMO but my guess would be self harm sadly. She doesn’t sound like she was dressed for coastal walking. There are some lovely remote coastal paths and beaches up and down that bit of Cornwall.

But the weather here the past few weeks has been diabolical. You would need to be dressed for it if out for a walk, and zip up ankle boots would not be it. There are lots of headlands around there and high cliffs, not all of them very steep though.

She just doesn’t seem like someone who was dressed for walking or swimming and likely to have had an accident.

My guess is over the Christmas season people may not notice that someone isn’t in their usual routine, especially if not expected by family. Hopefully now as everything is getting back to normal, someone will notice they haven’t seen her in a bit.

I presume that rules out Caroline Fisher who was my first thought when I saw this.

UK - UK - Caroline Fisher, 62, Cheltenham, car found at beach in Cornwall, 28 Jan 2022

News article "Police are concerned for the welfare of 62 year old Caroline Fisher, who has been reported missing from the Cheltenham area. Caroline was last seen on the Roseland Peninsula 11am Friday 28th January 2022. She is described as a white female, 5ft 4ins, slim build, with short dark...

Height/age range is about right but she went missing over a year back in January 2022 and she was said to have dark hair. Where Caroline went missing and where this lady was found are fairly close to each other.
