Redditch man drowns at Nuneaton beauty spot

A man has drowned after getting into difficulty while swimming at a Warwickshire beauty spot.

Wojciech Berlan, from Redditch in Worcestershire, was swimming in Ensor’s Pool in Nuneaton on Sunday afternoon, Warwickshire Police said.

Emergency crews were called at about 12:30 BST to reports that the the 27-year-old man had disappeared in the water and not resurfaced for five minutes.

He was pulled from the water but confirmed dead at the scene at about 13:30, police said.

The force is continuing to investigate on behalf of the coroner.

Mr Berlan’s next of kin have been informed, a police spokesperson added, and anyone who was there at the time is asked to contact police.

The pool, in the south-west area of the town, is a former clay pit that served a nearby colliery and brick works and is now a site of special scientific interest.
