Bridgend, Bridgend Hookup Spots and Stuff Only Locals Know

Hook-up Spots (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs - a bench, a corner: you name it.)

• the best place was the Y M C A , really ruff girls went there and the nice girls like me stayed well away
• outside perfect pool about 9 in the morning. waiting for it to open. or the stone bench outside specsavers the spot to cry to your hart content.
• For the 12 to 14's itz aberkenfig square, followed by the police station! 15's to 16's is 'hyper' now known as cafe mocha ( bigest shit hole in twn, for the under aged!)
• Those benches opposite the tollhouse?
• Train Station 2 go 2 cardiff
• The old eisteddfod stones in Newbridge fields. The big one in the middle is actually quite comfortable for lazing around on... once your entire lower body has gone numb and you can't feel the pain anymore.
• the generator behind bridgend recreation centre..ahhhh a god send for those chilly skirt clad, cider hugging winter nights
• The graveyard top of Newcastle Hill many fine memories.
• The grey container that holds the newspapers for the wildmill newsagents has become a popular place for 14-16 yr olds who get more "mature" people to buy them their flaggons of white lightning (Or if they have a lot of pocket money Strongbow)
• Top of Nolton Street for some unknown reason - most of the under age kids are already in the pubs before all the proper drinkers get into them.
• Town Saturday night
• the 16 year olds of 2day dont hang round on benches praying for car boys to pick them up anymore - oh -no, they are all in hyper. but u do get the occasional sl*g sitting with her legs wide open praying for that throbbing hunk of metal 2 wizz past
• Oooo, has to be the park by Spar in Brackla. Many a schoolnight in my childhood was spent setting fire to things and drinking flagons of cider there. Ah, the memories....
• um years ago it used to be the mon, outside jaggers. the so called townies, drinking flaggons of white lightening, or doing laps around town. jill was the leader, you were cool it she liked you. god help if she didn't. anyway apparently she is a lesbian now. all for their own i say. what ever makes them happy. these days the car parks in town turn into skaters heaven after 6 o'clock. full of little boys with trousers too big for them, and the wanna be girl friends, o bless!!
• The best hook up spot for any girl out there who wants an easy shag has got to be bowlers on a saturday night. Outside at 2.30am. Goes by the name of Adrian D. Whatever your age,however you look just smile and your in. Just make sure there is no one else in his bed before you jump in!!!
• Either the evil abomination of the 'monument' situated opposite 'The Toll House', or a random bench in Newbridge Fields. Generally filled with underage kids.
• The Triangle in Brackla!! It's gotta B!!!
• Brackla Triangle
• The physique gym behind the triangle in brackla seems to attract more than just the average gym junkie!!Bored teenagers tend to 'hang around' there,Well all round the shops really!!
• Well, all the "townies" hand around the mon(ument) drinking flagons of ale after collecting their benefits down the social.
• benches and squares and any other place where boy racers scream around picking up girls who (pretend) are 18 with white lightning flaggons at hand
• cefn glas infants school at nite! u could also shout things through my window from there cos i live two doors away!!!!
• Litchard - cos all the best looking boys lived there
• The Eisteddfod stones in Newbridge Fields saw stirling service between 1986 and 1987.
• The chippy on Cefn Glas on the bench outside.
• BETTWS NEAR BRIDGEND, WELL THE PLACE IS SMALL ENOUGH, PLENTY LIVE THERE, NOT MUCH GOES ON THERE, ANYWHERE THAT YOU ARE GUARENTEED TO BE SHELTERED FROM THE, 'CERTAIN' RAIN IS A SPOT WHERE WE HOOK UP.
• Around the back of the SPAR on Ewenny rd.Many a Flagon of carbon white and pack of dorchester king size can be found tossed aside in this alley of love.
• Everybody who visits Bridgend please do not be intimidated by young "townies" ,basically youths who have been draged up through a hedge backwards,for they are all mouth and full of the proverbial dog dung.
• SQI's garage is the best place to hang, with old marion serving refreshments in skimpy clothing!
• The bus station.... you can stop many a prepubescent, just into junior school rebel smoker with a larger can cunningly concealed in their armpit... here......
• The monument- drinking flagon of White Lightenning is compulsary
• They also hangout oppposite Bowlers or by any monument
• * You could hang around up at Pines, which was suppose to be a great thing which was being added to Bridgend, but it has proved not to be.....the only good thing it has proven is the cinema which is being opened on my Birthday *hint,hint* also a Mcdonalds! *ummmm apart from the clubs there isnt many other places...i would seriously avoid if your not a townie....eg, sitting on a street corner in your tracksuit bottoms and a bottel of cider.... *Oh yea.the Rec. *shrug*
• Car park near recreation centre.

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.
