An amusement park that is popular with Herefordshire families is to close for the final time this autumn.
In a post on social media, the owners of Coney Beach in Porthcawl said:
“It is with heavy hearts we would like to share with you personally that this season at Coney Beach will be our last.
“We will be closing our gates for the final time this October.
“It’s the end of an era, for over one hundred years we and other showmen and their families have lived and worked in Porthcawl helping to make it a busy seaside destination. Bringing fun, laughter and fond memories to so many.
“We will miss it greatly and while we are sad to see our time here come to an end we are forever grateful to have had the opportunity to have been part of so many generations of families lives, young and old.
“Thank you for sharing our love of ‘all the fun of the fair’ and the legacy that Coney Beach leaves.”
The Evans family
