New ride planned for Flamingo Land theme park
9:07am Monday 23rd April 2012 in News
THE owners of a Ryedale theme park have applied for permission to bring in a new ride for thrill-seekers.
Flamingo Land Ltd is looking to install a 46-metre vertical swing at the Kirby Misperton attraction, which attracts about 1.8 million visitors a year, and plans have been handed to Ryedale District Council.
If approved, the swing would stretch out as far as 26 metres, and agents acting for the company say its introduction would play “an important part” in the park’s plans for the future and ensure it remains “a leading attraction”.
