POLICE say they are concerned for the welfare of a woman who left home after a row with her partner.
Michelle Marriott, 47, of High Street, Lyndhurst, disappeared almost a week ago.
A police spokesman said: "She was last seen by her partner last Wednesday. They had a small dispute over a financial matter before Michelle left.
"Police and friends are growing increasingly concerned for her welfare as it's unusual to be unable to contact her for this period of time."
Michelle is described as white, average build with "very long" black straight hair.
Anyone who may have seen Michelle or knows of her whereabouts should contact Hythe police station on 0845 045 4545 or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
