We used to come every year to Ingoldmells and I seem to remember that sml fair with some slides there was it called Eastgate? We used to stay at benroys holiday camp near a sml arcade called Richards and there used to be those cable cars at butlins. Great video great memories and I'm in my 50s fab place 😀

The only arcade we had near the sea used to have a BIG BEN slot machine and a helicopter in a glass cabinet. I used to stay in my gran`s caravan next to the old car park from 1970 to 1980. Looks very busy now.

The Holland family who now owns fantasy island used to bring the funfair under the archway, the market was called East gate market, the arcade was called fantasy island and had a burger bar at the front. Around the back was a family club and a open air pool, one one side was a night club called Raffles

Used to holiday on The Seaview caravan site in the late '60s and early '70s. I remember the 2 go-kart tracks one for little kids and one for the older ones with the slide. Won my first camera at Bingo in the Seaview arcade (it had a sticky shutter) and had them developed at the hexagonal kiosk outside the arcade which took a couple of days to come back.Took Quite a few photos down Ingoldmells and Skegness with that B&W camera and some of the dolphins that were where the Skegness aquarium is now. Will have a look next time I have a clearout.

A great video. I've just come across this channel and I'm impressed by what I've seen so far (I really enjoyed the 40s/50s event video). Just an idea but, everyone who does Ingoldmells concentrates on the big market so - for something different - why not do a tour round the 'little' market on the other side of the road? It's a good place to shop and I'm sure folks will find it interesting. BTW. I've subscribed.
