Skateboarding Spots

• There are no known skateboard spots because nobody in Bury can ACTUALLY skate. No need for them you see.
• there is a nice as wearhouse not far from the skatepark its apparantly getting demolished but nothing has been touched for ages, used to be open to skaters/bmxrs etc. used to have 2 (approx)4ft quarter pipes, a nice concrete box in the middle (beautiful height for manuals etc about the height of two curbs)the concrete box used to have sketchy ramps over it and was pretty fun to fly over, then the other side a big metal flatbank. also a (i think) 4 set quite steep but not too much trouble and loads of legdes, this place is packed with materials to make new ramps etc from. pretty nice spot definatly better than bury skatepark for people who arent ramp skaters. to get to it just go to bury skatepark instead of climbing the fence (or walking round to the gate) cross the road so ur out the front of a flooring company (usually have office chairs out the front aswell. then walk away from town (towards the pub) and on your right u will see 2 smashed up abandoned wearhouses a white one and a brown one, the brown one is the one. get in and hope some bastard hasnt taken all the ramps down etc.... p.s. may take a bit of work to get in, so take something to open the wooden boards over the windows.
