Mary Lynch, who runs the Atlantic Cafe in Wimborne Road, said she opened the cafe just minutes after the body was found.
"It scared me," she said. "I always leave the door unlocked while I'm here on my own for the other member of staff to come in and it's just something I won't do again.
"I think it was a shock, because it's on our doorstep. Although it's an industrial estate everyone knows each other."
