Maybe a bit off topic but how about "Fantasies" water park at Dartford?

Seem to remember some rumors going around that it was sinking or something like that?

Small scale but when I was young we used to go to Shipley Glen fairground, it was a Victorian place and they had a ride called "The Aerial Glide" that was a gravity ride, the only remaining one of its kind and Grade II listed but they pulled it down and demolished the rest of the stuff so the owner of the site could sell it to build houses there.
