A water park on the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire border has been forced to close after "strange algae" was discovered. The park will reopen once the results of a full lab report into the discovery have returned.
The algae was discovered in the water at Spring Lakes in Long Eaton. The £500,000 waterpark was opened in Long Eaton in 2019 by Mansfield couple Katie and Richard Hill, who own the 133-acre former Trent Meadow site.
The team says: "Unfortunately we will remain closed today as no matter how hard we tried overnight it proved impossible to get the correct level of water testing completed due to the bank holiday. We will continue to work as hard as possible to get these completed as soon as possible in order to safely reopen."
