    I would just like to say, that I would like to dedicate this film to my late father Brian Carter who worked at Derbyshire County Council Reclamation Department, at the time when Shipley Wood , just changed to Britannia. And I can remember going down to see Shipley Wood just before the changes. Many thanks for the Happy Memories. Simon Carter

      That’s so lovely. I hope I did you and your father proud with this look back on the park.

    I was a repeat visitor in the 90s as a kid. I LOVED missile. We couldn't afford the likes of Alton Towers, but always had a great time at the American Adventure.

      The park looked like so much fun! Such a shame it went away, I would’ve loved to go at least once. At least Missile is still open in Lowestoft!

    It’s such a shame it went. I went to the site a few months ago and there is now nothing left. Great video as well

      I would’ve loved to visit this park! Maybe one day I’ll get to see the site. Despite there not being a park, I’m sure there’s still some enjoyment out there at Shipley lake, nature itself is lovely!

    Can you imagine if it got the b&m and CCI coasters the place would have been amazing

    • @Coaster_Cray_Cray
      @Coaster_Cray_Cray  4 дні тому

      Oh it would definitely be a major player if those coasters made it to reality. They would’ve been the start of many new rides!

    I'm so confused. I was born in 1973 and live in the Northwest but have never even heard of this place before.

      Hindsight is 20/20!
      You ain’t the only person who missed it though, I was born the year before the park closed. I never got the opportunity to go either!

    Why Aztec Kingdom, when it was Native American themed?

      I believe it was just its own separate area. Either way, those faces did become an iconic part of the park
