In a statement, the council said it is advising the public not to swim in the area following results from a water sample taken on July 10th.
The samples, which test the level of e-coli and intestinal enterococci in the water, returned elevated results following a period of heavy rainfall.
The notice is set to remain in place until Wednesday.
