    So many memories. My dad was a hairdresser and used to cut bettys hair. Remember my mum n dad taking us there when we were small. And I believe I took one of children there before it closed. Thanks for uploading ❤

      My grandad ran the trains here. Michael Marshall. Used to help out during the summer holidays.

    Great video, thanks. Went here every summer as a young child, enjoyed every minute! Can still smell the train now.

      Could have been Wiltshire's "Disney"? - much missed by many.

    Thank you so much for uploading this video, I use to go there so often as a kid in the summer holidays in the 70's with two old ladies who were friends of the family, I lived in Bristol and it was like going to another world.

      I feel the same Tim. I can vividly remember the sights and sounds of visits there in the mid seventies.

    Omg I went there twice as a kid. First time it was all open and working, then went back few years later and then it had all closed down.
    For the last 10 or more years I been trying to remember what this place was called
    I can now finally lay to rest that thought

    Went there many times growing up in the 70s. It was a magical place.
