Hi, I found this site when searching for a map of the park when it was open. Thanks to nic_jon here for that! We were sad to see that the site is just awaiting planning permission for over 300 dwellings,a business centre,hotel and more. We went for a trip down memory lane but there were few clues left to orientate ourselves. It must now be a haven for wildlife, the lake is beyond wonderful and the trees and shrubs - many planted for the leisure park have grown into fabulous mature specimens.




















 
Is the pier still standing? I visited about 4 years ago and it was one of the only landmarks still standing.
 
One of my family worked on this site during the parks construction after the work was completed we were given free tickets. Don't really remember much been only young at the time. A lot of theme parks have gone now , thanks for the trip down memory lane.
