Kirkby Ski Slope

  • Source: "Building work began on the development, located between Kirkby Stadium and the M57, in November 1973.

Predicted to open to the public in 1974, the slope encountered numerous issues, such as vandalism and problems with the surface and, in 1975, the project was abandoned."

Thanks for taking the time to review it. I've added a citation that backs up the claims about the lack of railings and the surface.LicenceToCrenellate (talk) 22:23, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
