Does Florida Lake have a swimming pool?

What is the history of Florida Lake Roodepoort?
The necessity for a water source became apparent with the increasing mining population and activities. So, in 1889 the government decided to dam up the spruit running through the Bantjes mine property. A dam wall was raised in 1909 and the resultant dam became Florida Lake.
