Күн бұрынWe take a trip to the seafront and back on the chairlift at the long closed and demolished Mr Marvels amusement park in Scarborough. The video is a compilation of chairlift rides in 1992, 1996 and 1998 together with some sad photographs of the remains of each end of the chairlift in 2007

Riding this charlift was the first time I saw my dad petrified. That wobble going over the support towers freaked him out. As a 6 year old, I thought this was hilarious. I must have been a right little sod....

Agreed

It suffered from a huge lack of investment. It should still be there and better than ever now. Agreed it is a massive loss to Scarborough. I loved it here.

Just another wonderful facet of Scarborough run to ruin 😭. I remember working on parts for this after the collapse when there were people dragged through undergrowth when the cable dropped the chairs to the floor.

So sad to see these places left abandoned and decaying, it would be so nice if it could be restored and used again. 😊

A great loss. I explored what remains of this and it’s only the chair lift posts that show where it’s located
