The huge reservoir at Covenham - scene of the tragedy
 

POLICE are today continuing their inquiries into a weekend tragedy at a reservoir popular with Grimsby-area watersports enthusiasts and birdwatchers.

The body of a woman is understood to have been recovered from Covenham Reservoir, between Cleethorpes and Louth, yesterday  morning.

She is thought to have been in her 70s.

It is not known how long she had been in the water.

The reservoir is one of many within the portfolio of Anglian Water whose bosses are being kept  updated.

                                                              
Only last week, Anglian Water and police urged thrill-seeking  teenagers not to use this 'pier' for diving into the icy water



The message is spelled out in this warning notice
