Pleasant walk in from the viaduct, take left-hand fork, then right to reach an easy entry spot with grassy area. Very ferny under the water, so not for you if you don't like bits touching you. About 3/4 way down there is an embankment sticking out into the water where you can stand and stop for a break if swimming the length. Very pretty spot. Can hear trains going past, though so not totally tranquil.
