Pleasurewood Hills

Bar the odd refurbishment which is basically work that should happen anyway they have not invested for a decade and counting, i think that's telling enough

I’m very surprised they didn’t think of buying some of the rides at Flambards or even Oakwood.

Honestly Knightmare at Pleasurewood Hills could've changed the park's fortunes slightly. It may not have been much but it could be the headliner alongside Wipeout.

I cannot agree more. Of all the parks in the UK I actually thought it would have ended up at PWH yet no it didn't, it was ludicrously scrapped !

The owner of Knightmare wanted a large sum of money. Then the train was destroyed.

I thought a train ended up in Blackpool didnt it ?

No, that was Southport.
The ride itself wasn't very good, and dented oil drums filled with concrete is not a good look for footers.
It may have been the best ride at Camelot, but that doesn't say much.

One of the Knightmare trains fell off the back of a lorry in Blackpool, several years after Camelot closed. I've no idea why it was there or where it was going though

Knightmare was a UK top 5 coaster for me, along with Mouse and Ultimate it's one of a lost trio of utterly bonkers coasters a world away from the precision engineering of today.
