The Artificial Beach in London | Ruislip Lido

Ruislip Lido is a large lake (technically a reservoir) towards the north of the London suburb of Ruislip in the London Borough of Hillingdon. It makes a splendid walk, there is a miniature railway, a pub, a beach, several picnic areas, children's playground and a café. It is, in the summer, a very popular place to go. There is no admission charge at Ruislip Lido but there is a charge to ride on the railway and to park your car. What we all today know as Ruislip Lido started life in 1811 as Ruislip Reservoir and was built as a feeder for the Grand Junction Canal, later, in 1933, to become the Grand Union Canal.
