What’s This Page About Digger?

As it says below. 

   


A list of river & lake swimming locations in England, Scotland, Wales and beyond




This gazetteer has been up and running on the internet since 1958. Well, ok thats the date of the photo below. It is dedicated to my dad who sadly passed away on the 14th March 2003.

He can be seen in the photo above during a protest swim against the closure of the Aston ferry across the River Thames near Hambleden, Bucks. in 1958 (ish).

Like Father Like Son?

Oh yes it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (the same spot over 45 years on)

The gazetteer.

It’s a gazetteer of information, many with photographs, of my “best” or “favourite” swimming places. I have only included places that I have actually swam. Due to the ever increasing number of swims, I now have separate pages for Scotland, Wales, England and other countries – see the drop down Wild Swimming menu above.
