Skateboarding Spots

• Don't like skateboarding but for all those who do skate,i feel sorry for all you guys...The Skatepark Is Diabolically poor.........Council should fund that and not eyesores like the bandstand
• There is an ok gap in the new street car park, opposite the horse and jockey, bit rough though, also a fairly large grass gap in the industrial estate, but there is often things in the way, like skips and other such annoying obstacles. oh and by the way, the dumbass crew, you don't own brandon carpark, your not worthy.
• the parks bein re done, we got the new driveway, but its to big, but were gettin, i think about another £4.500 from the council, good but not great considerin ledbury just got 46 grand!!! but a decent rail and some kinda ramp, thatll be nice
• Oh no! Something's goin on at the skate park near the river off wilton roundabout; one of the big sections of the park that is used for just riding on or grinding down has vanished- the driveway!! No one I know has any idea where it vanished to or why so if anyone has more info than me please share it. There is also a big rumour rife of a new revamp of the park, some of the parts have been partially fixed but as yet im not sure who by. If it is the council though that could be good news cuz it could mean they are recognizing the appalling state of the park and are doing something. Finally! So if ur lookin for spots the park cud get a whole load better soon.
• There is a skatepark near the river and sports fields, which is pretty bashed by the local kevs and scals. The Larrupez (or however you wanna spell it) Center is pretty good, 4 set behind it that I've got kicked off a couple of times. Market house has got good stairs but it's a bit of a bust. Car park behind Brandon Tool hire is decent; manny pad, waxed kerb. And the Ashfield Primary School's okay and so is the High school. And by the way, the Dumbass Crew are a bit stupid thinking they own these spots. They're all a load of newbie skaters in year ten, they should respect some of the older and much, much better skaters. Most of the year eights are almost or just as good (if not then better)than 'em and two or three of the year sevens. From a real skater who the dumbass crew see all the time but never know who he is.
• hey i kno some secret spots follow the posse of older people, soon to be covered in knit wear.....also ashfield is good if u want to boardslide a bench over and over again...which is fun...but if u want really skating head to hereford
• hey im grant from the dumbass crew an i wanna know who this is i why there talkin bout us also to add to the spots theres the raised bit at the larrapez for grinding, the 4 step round the back, brandons are place an its real good the suface is good an the curb is good also, schools pretty good for learning to ollie off steps (its just a 2 step) and to introduce the dumbass crew its grant,josh,joe,ted,jason and kinda toby and dan
• There is a skate park down near the river somewhere.
• The School cos the surface is great and thes a 2 set!!, brandon curb n the brandon gap basically, Youth center and thats about it................(spots owend by the Dumbass crew)

Skateboard Shops

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
