Two men have been charged with murder after a woman's body was found in a Lincolnshire village.

Hayley Marson, 33, was found dead at a property on Thames Street, in Hogsthorpe, near Skegness, at about 09:00 BST on Tuesday, Lincolnshire Police said.

On Friday, John Scott, 52, of no fixed address, and John Welby, 65, of Thames Street, Hogsthorpe, appeared at Lincoln Magistrates' Court charged with her murder.

Both men were remanded into custody and are due to appear at Lincoln Crown Court on Monday, the force added.

Det Insp Melissa Rooke said: "We are working at pace to provide answers to Hayley's family and our thoughts remain very much with them at this tragic time."

She said the force believe it to be an isolated incident and do not consider there to be any wider risk to the public.

Meanwhile, Marson's family described her as "a beautiful daughter, a loving sister, a cherished granddaughter and a wonderful auntie".

They added: "Hayley was taken from us far too soon, leaving a space in our family that can never truly be filled.

"There are simply no words to describe how much she was loved and how deeply she will be missed every single day.

"Hayley was a gentle and caring soul who would do anything for anyone. She had a heart of gold and was always willing to help those around her.

"Along with her kind heart came a big personality that could never be forgotten. She brought laughter, smiles and so many memories that we will treasure forever.

"Although we would give anything to have just one more day with her, we will carry Hayley with us always - in our hearts, in our memories and in the stories we share."

Anyone with information that could assist the investigation is asked to contact police.
