I must admit, before I saw NIJ's thread, I thought these had been removed years ago. I was last up here in 2005 and the little fairground thing was still going and the big mongy shop thing (sealed tight) was still open. It was closed down due to health and safety and insurance problems.

Today they remain in great condition with no vandalism but the dogem arena itself if now rotten in places. In the little side room are loads of broken and old dogem cars, some which look ancient :thumb

Thanks to NIJ for bringing this place to my attention, a gem of a site. Visited with Squirrel68


Looking up at the dogem arena from the ground.

Everything is still in nice condition.
