   Sounds reminiscent of the much bigger Walthamstow Wetlands project: http://www.walthamforest.gov.uk/pages/servicechild/walthamstow-wetlands.aspx “

   The west reservoir is open again

   ‘Wild swimmers’ have to wear a wetsuit and pay £15 induction for an induction, which takes place Thursday evenings or Saturday mornings.

   From then on sessions costs £5 for Better Gym members and £10 for everyone else.
