Additional Infos
good all round skate park great for any level just watch out for chavs.
>Yeah same really. Don't go unless you know someone else who's been before, and kick the chavs off there bikes if you can.

> The main session is sunday night! alot of locals go down.

It's all based around a pool, which links into a bowl. It's good for old school skating and slalom if you can get the speed. It's good for loads of different abilities. There are some quater pipes in the center and a pretty decent ramp. It's not much but it's all there is around here and it's good for practising.

> My first experience had an 8yr old trying to nick my bmx (im 15) quite easy to deal with cause it's mainly a verbal assault. Try to keep to yourself and keep a low profile locals are quite friendly so im sure some may help you out.

It's a really good little park, been around for a long time, good for bowl skaters and oldschoolers, not much for street skaters. The park features several mellow bowls connected together with one steep bowl, creating a good snake run. Good place for begginers because of the small drops ins and the overal level of skaters within the park. Average amount of people during week if sunny or bright is about 13 people all relaxed and chilled out. Try not to get caught in a bad crowd cause some try to get your stuff so go with a friend.

YEAAAAHH!!


its not as bad as you make it sound... im a local and go there nearly every day. yeah there are chavs but they wont do anything unless you start somthing. dont worry about them. the locals are all sound and give you the same ammount of respect as you give them. great park to have a little session. most people go down either weekday nights when there is nice weather or most of the day on saturday or sunday. great for riding. good for skateboarding. ok for skates.

see you there :)
