Frontierland: Lost rides of now abandoned theme park loved by Manchester kids in its heyday
Many Mancunians growing up in the 1980s and '90s will remember the excitement of a trip to Frontierland.
In its 12 years operating as Frontierland, new rides were regularly added. In 1989, the 'Sky Ride' was introduced which was a cable car system that allowed people to fly over the park and out over Morecambe's spectacular promenade. Now the site of the former Wild West themed park is finally set to be reused after more than 20 years of lying derelict. Lancaster City Council has bought the area that used to be home to the Frontierland theme park in Morecambe, saying it intends to use the land to 'help drive the reinvention of the town'.
Log Flume The ever-popular Log Flume opened in 1982, and despite the park’s closure in 2000, remained on site until 2009, making it a magnet for urban explorers.
