| Farleigh and District Swimming Club. Half a mile downstream from Stowford Farm, Farleigh boasts the only river swimming club left in the country. Founded in 1933, it now has over 2000 members. The water is fresh, with a deep area above the weir for lovely swimming. There are toilets and changing rooms available. There is also a large car park with easy access to swimming. The Club is run by a Committee, who take it in turns to collect subs. Sometimes in the height of the summer we have to employ somebody to help out. The Club is chaired by stalwart enthusiast, Mr. Rob Fryer. Membership is compulsory for insurance reasons but subscriptions are kept low at £16 for a family membership, £10 for an adult membership, and £5 for a junior one. These can be paid in instalments. |
