Kiddie's Corner (also known as Children's Corner) was a small seaside amusement park in Cleveleys, Lanacshire, England, UK.[1]
History
The park was opened in 1961 by the Mason family.[2]
In 2004, the park was threatened with closure to allow sea defence work to take place.[3] The park did not close and instead relocated slightly north to a smaller site.
In 2018, the park was taken over by Joey Silcock. It ultimately closed in October 2019.[4] On 22 September 2020, rides started to be removed and the following day Silcock confirmed that the park would not reopen, stating that it was no longer financially viable due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5]
