The Memories of Clary Swann - Page 17 The Wild Mouse was a large big dipper type ride. It was a wood structure which was taken down and painted every three years. The ride was very noisy and sparked complaints from the residents living behind the amusement park, this problem was soon overcome when residents in the immediate vicinity were given a rate reduction by the local authority. The Mouse came from a company in Scotland called George Maxwell and Co.
When it was first erected the idea was that it would
be a ride for adults. Clary Swann tested the ride and to his amazement
when he got off standing waiting to have a go were his young daughters.
After much pleading they were allowed a ride, this persuaded Clary
that the ride was suitable for youngsters as well and the age limit
was lowered. |
