When writing an article on Barnhurst Water reclaimation I was assured that the water out the pipes is drinking water quality but seagulls crap in it... If you take our local drinking water as a guide the stuff out the pipes is definately not distilled water. Incidentally there is a marked flow on the canal near B8 moorings but from there on there are overflows so if the locks are not being worked and the water (3 million gallons) is flowing not that much would get down to Wheaton.
