The place was on a bigger site than the original Disneyworld. Yes, animal welfare wasn't great, but it wasn't anywhere back then. People welfare wasn't too great either! It was magical to me as a kid.
Recall going to the fireworks after stock cars/speedway and it was bits and pieces to the skeletons as well!
they closed this fantastic place down,built the showcase cinema and a few other places that to date have proberbley made a few hundred quid in 20 odd years.what a waste
It was rundown as the land was required for the eventually unbuilt m67 motorway from the city centre to the m67 that was done. Have a look on google earth along Hyde road. It clearly shows how everything next to Hyde road was pulled down in preparation.

The animals were treated badly, cant say it was a loss that this place closed.

Brilliant footage.
I used to live just around the corner from here down Mount road.
Used to visit the Zoo, Circus, speedway and stock cars regulary.
Such a shame it's gone.
