Waterfall.


Waterfall.

This is part of the lake at the bottom of my garden. There is a gate here and also one further up stream and sometimes, I have seen the lake completely dry for a day - and can only assume that the gates have been closed... It's a source of wonderment to me at the moment. I haven't swum in it yet..
Any comments anyone has about weirs, rivers/lakes/safety of the water or of swimming in it, would be very much appreciated.

For goodness sake don't just go jumping in, there could be hidden dangers under the water, currents, weed etc. You could ask the locals or the gamekeeper assuming there is one they may know the character of the water and may advise a safe area for you to take a dip.

I learnt to swim in the river, we loved it and it was a special occasion to pack a few sarnies and a drink and spend the afteroon fishing for tiddlers, Dido is right though be wise to check with someone first....
