Highgate Hill

Highgate is an area of North London, to the east of Hampstead Heath and divided between the London Boroughs of Camden, Haringey and Islington.

Highgate ponds include three swimming ponds, for men, women, and mixed respectively. The men's pond has a clothing-optional sunbathing area.
