British photographer Kate Barry has been found dead on the pavement beneath her fourth-floor flat in Paris.

The 46-year-old was the daughter of actress and singer Jane Birkin and the late James Bond composer John Barry.

Ms Barry's body was found soon after 6.30pm on Wednesday in the 16th arrondissement of the French capital. 

Sources say she fell 80ft from a window of her apartment, where anti-depressants were found inside.

It is just a few miles from the flat where Ms Birkin herself now lives on Paris's Left Bank.

s Barry was thought to be alone inside the flat before the tragedy happened, and anti-depressants were said to have been found by police.

'The matter is under investigation, but we can confirm the death,' said a local police spokesman. He said the front door of the floor was found locked.

France's culture minister paid a moving tribute to Ms Barry today, offering 'heartfelt and loving thoughts' to 'a family we all love, the French love'.
