However, in England, as many as four theme parks have closed down due to a variety of reasons.
American Adventure Theme Park, Derbyshire – this park was opened as Britannia Park in June 1985 by boxer Henry Cooper, but was later renamed The American Adventure in June 1987. It closed down in 2007, due to financial problems and dwindling attendance. Most of the equipment has, since, been removed but the lake remains, surrounded by grassland.
Dreamland Theme Park, Kent – this was one of the country's oldest amusement parks. It is believed that, at one time, the 16-acre site boasted of a zoo, miniature railway, cinema, cafes, restaurants, bars, shops and a 2,000-capacity ballroom. The park closed in 2003, but Thanet District Council and The Dreamland trust has plans to reopen it as a heritage theme park.
Cornwall Coliseum– this had started in the 1980s and closed down during the early 2000s. In 2011 a firm was granted permission to redevelop Carlyon Bay at the site of the Cornwall Coliseum and work has yet to be started.
Belle Vue Zoological Gardens, Manchester – this was started in 1836 by a local gardener John Jenison. He started with a small aviary and gardens on the site. It gradually expanded to include a zoo, circus, funfair, boating lake, speedway, boxing, wrestling and beauty pageants. T was touted as the Manchester version of Disneyland. In its heyday, it attracted two million visitors a year and a record 180,000 on one bank holiday. It closed down in 1977.
