  • The Peak District's Blue Lagoon beckons with its vibrant, turquoise waters, but is it safe to swim in? This video dives into the mystery of this abandoned quarry, exploring the dangers that lurk beneath the surface. Despite its beauty, the Blue Lagoon is a toxic soup, with caustic quicklime dissolved in the water resulting in a highly alkaline pH of 11.3. For reference, ammonia has a pH of 11.5 and bleach has a pH of 12.6.
    🌟 Highlights:
    * The Illusion of Beauty: Capturing the stunning, deceptive beauty of the Blue Lagoon.
    * Hidden Dangers: Exploring the toxic nature of the water and why it's unsafe.
    * Educational Insight: Understanding the chemical composition and risks associated with swimming in this lake.
    Join me as we uncover the truth about the Blue Lagoon, a natural wonder that's too beautiful to be true.

    That is the remains of Hoffman Quarry which had large lime burning kiln. As a child I lived on the main road and went to school on Grinlow Road just above where you turn for the industrial estate. The Air Ministry built a large underground weapon storage bunker which in later years became a Mushroom Farm. At the other end of Grinlow Road towards Axe Edge is another Quarry called Ladmanlow which is now The Caravan and Motorhome club site.

      @@paulcomptonpdphotography It is just full of burnt lime, on the in the dip there is a cottage and the stream was always bright blue! My Grandad worked up at the Airministry and he would get a big lump of burnt lime and take it home wrapped in newspaper. He would put in a bucket and fill it with water and it would erupt. He then used it to whitewash his outside loo and coal house. Google Hoffman quarry and yo will see photos of the huge kiln and chimney

    Think the colour comes from the lime dissolving from the limestone in the area certainly would push the Ph level up, shipwreck beach in Zante is the same but that colours the sea.

    What a terrific place to photograph. It seems to be the graveyard for stolen cars. Loved the photos Paul.

    Looks like a lime quarry we’ve got one near Bridgend same colour water

    Needs a good dose of acid to neutralise. It is noticeable the pool does not have a shore line, the water level is stable. So water must leak out when it rains and there must be a water supply when dry? One of these pools breached its dam some years ago and turned the Derwent river blue green to the Trent.

    For a location you first thought you might get a phone snap, you got some great shots with the camera mate. It amazes me the stupiditiy of people out there who would think it's ok to swim in something that toxic, madness.

    pH 1.4 is acidic, not alkaline. The pH scale goes from 1 to 14, with 1 being highly acidic, 14 being highly basic/alkaline. O level chemistry.

    There is a Lake in Guadelest in Spain which is the same colour I wonder if the water is as toxic as this one? I must start doing a bit of research, thank you for showing us around it....

    I seem to remember (dredging my memory from over 30 years ago) one like this down near Winchester I saw from a road above it. Anyone know where ? I think it had something to do with the china clay industry.
