Description

Henleaze Lake is situated in the Bristol suburb of Henleaze, 3 miles from the city centre. This former quarry is approximately four hundred metres long and thirty metres wide, with an average depth of three metres increasing to six metres under the diving area. Swimming access is via pontoons and diving boards at the southern end of the lake. There is no beach at the lake; however a lawn area exists at the southern end, a steep rock face around the north and eastern edges and a wooded bank on the west shore. The lake is entirely spring-fed and has a variety of recreational uses, principally swimming and angling. The Lake is open to members and their guests only, from May to September
