Wonderful video makes me happy and sad at the same time.

Always used to go to Morecambe, Blackpool and Southport pleasure beaches with the kids ..proper seaside funfairs!

Thank you for this, I needed a little reminiscing, spent half my life in that fun house xD

Good old fashioned fun! I'm disappointed that I never got the chance to visit this park.

Before river caves was turned into "Lost Dinosaurs Of Sahara", it used to run on its original lighting system by having a light to turn on to view a stunt when a boat passes through.

Memories of growing up. Remember always going to the fun house and nearly always winning on the spinning wheel, remember mum was having a brew upstairs and Jimmy nail 'crocodile shoes' was playing

Thanks for posting, its just like I remembered it when I was a kid.

I see people I know and think I was there that day. Only Human Roulette Wheel I had the chance to ride. A grand day out!

Thanks very much for this superb footage! I'm very happy that someone has filmed the river caves, fun house and Cyclone. I had my 13th Birthday party in the fun house Southport. I fought to save this park from destruction (google or search on youtube 'granada tv cyclone' you will see our protests and demos to try and save the rides and parks. Well done on your film, thanks for posting. Pete Crompton, Southport Preservation Trust.

Welcome to the River Caves. Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom booooooooooom

just like to say R.I.P to pleasureland southport sadly last night the river caves which has been standing for 2 years untouched burnt down to the ground at 8pm yesterday, it has been derlict since. thanks for the video

I absolutely adored the river caves and my heart broke when it was burnt down, How on earth did they get away with knocking down the cyclone in such a disgraceful way?

Loved this old park and its classic Cyclone; never got to ride those trains though! True wanton destruction of this iconic park; just left to gradually burn down year on year sadly. It's certainly true; you never miss what you have until it's gone. If only we had that time machine now and the foresight, I'd have taken quite a few more rides there, especially the Cyclone. I also joined the Cyclone Campaign to save it but, alas, they finally got their wicked way. Hope the fun can return again.

a true shame that southports pleasureland park got destroyed

I worked at pleasureland in school holidays for five years. Especially in the funhouse

do any southport people out there, do you agree it was alot better there than it is now

wish the cyclone was still there my late grand perants went on the cyclone whn it was brand new, most of my family including myself went on the cyclone many times

Ride operator back in 89- 90s on haunted swing. Southport was better back then it seems

Imagine the hse turning upto the funhouse an doing a risk assessment 😂

i hear fantasia

Kicking scousers off the wheel in the fun house...Happy days..

That was a proper fair then not like it is now. Waste of space now

the park reopened in 2009 but is not as good as the old one

Why is somebody American speaking as the narrator of the video? :)
