More clearing happening behind pirate adventure
This is the former exit for the ride before Thomas land opened. Notice the former door way and brick work

Yeah
As you can see the Haunted Crypt was half the size of the pirate adventure building so they that to theme the building 3/4 of the way around
After riding the train yesterday I can confirm that the pieces you seen were old pieces of fencing.
Does anyone remember that giant face that used to be on the side of the rides Facade?

I believe I do yes but i don't have any photos.
Glad I'm not going mad haha! I managed to find some footage of it on an old 1900 Tape on YouTube.
Where was that bit at? Emilys adventure play?
I believe so, thats why you don't see the Fort on the right anymore.
That pirate is roughly where the original Thomas land toilets were installed.
The pirate Adventure shop was roughly where the Thomas land shop is now

Not 100% sure but think this was the pump motor from the pirate adventure
God that’s unlocked a memory. I’m sure it was painted up in its final years?
It's not, that's one of the pumps for River Rapids. Tall things they are.
Pirate Adventure's pumps were quite small.
Just watching Lift hills and thrills vlog
Anyway has anyone seen the storm damage done to the entrance to pirate adventure?

It got hit quite hard by the looks (I'm out of town for the new year so don't know how the wind has been)
Admittedly, kinda cool to see the structure under all that.
Hope no one was injured or anything!
Will the PA building now stay like that or have a modern replacement
I wonder if during the closed season they will knock the whole of the frontage off as a safety precaution.
