Help Identifying Old Movie

When I was getting ready for work one day a long time ago, I saw a little piece of this black & white film. I believe it was British. I've always wondered what the title was and to see the full movie.

The part I saw was outside a very large mansion. In the back was a murky pool. There was a guy looking into the pool -- maybe even probing with a pole or something. He opened a gate on the edge of the pool and started draining it But then at a side gate to the house, the police showed up. They came back and were talking to him briefly and a body was becoming visible in the pool. The police went further down behind the house where I think it was on the coast. As soon as they were away, he closed the gate and started re-filling the pool.

That's as much as I saw. Enough for anyone to know what movie this was ??

Many thanks.

Steve

Sounds like LES DIABOLIQUE.

No, there was no body in a pool in Diabolique.

It might be Scream of Fear (1960), but that doesn't quite fit either.

You sure there wasn't a Baby Ruth bar somewhere?
