Gullet Quarry has repeatedly been the scene of police action, with 51 swimmers moved on from the site in the summer of 2020.
In 2013, the notorious beauty spot claimed the lives of Justas Juzenas, aged 22, of Ross-on-Wye and Russell O’Neill, aged 17, of Worcester who both drowned there in July of that year.
Shocking photos released in 2020 showed around 50 people gathered by the side of the water for a barbecue.
