AN inquest into the death of a much-loved teenager who was found dead at her family home will be heard this week.

Brittany Missen, 19, was discovered at her house in Portsmouth Road, Bursledon, on May 22 this year.

As reported by the Daily Echo, Hampshire police said there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding her death.

Brittany, a supervisor at a B&Q store in Hedge End, was a former student at Barton Peveril College.

Tributes poured in on social media sites as news of her death spread.

Messages included “Such a sad day, RIP Brittany Missen, so sad that you're no longer with us.”

Her mum Jaqui took to Facebook and wrote: “Words cannot convey how we feel at this time, thank you for your messages.

“Brittany was a special daughter in all ways and will be missed more than I can ever say, it's like a nightmare that I just want to wake up from.”

Her inquest will take place at Winchester Coroner's Court tomorrow.
