Summary
A popular wild swimming spot near Bath is in crisis as its owner warns of imminent danger: thousands of visitors cross a busy railway line to reach Warleigh Weir, ignoring warning systems and risking lives.

With trespassing on the tracks escalating and water safety uncertain, authorities are scrambling to find a solution before tragedy strikes.
