The
Adventureland Playground was constructed in the mid 70s and was
located in the Talbot Centre (now Dark Forest). Despite the name, it
never resided in either Adventureland 4-11 or the modern Adventure
Land.
Until the Towers became and Amusement Park in 1980, the playground
had been one of the park's premier attractions and featured heavily
in the 1970s guides. However once the park started to develop, the
large area taken up by the playground meant it relocated in 1984 to
make way for the thrill rides of Festival Park.
For the remainder of its time in the park it was resident in Fantasy
World, joining the rest of the areas play equipment. With a large
influx of other play equipment into the park (namely Kiddies Kingdom
and Children's World) the Adventureland Playground started to look
increasingly dated and was finally
removed from the park in 1993.
