Colchester - Changes to the Minigolf, and a Dug-up Putting Course!

We (re)visited Colchester on Sunday 8th May 2011 to have a look and see if either the Minigolf or Putting Course was open in the town's main Park.

To our surprise the Putting Course has been dug up and replaced with a play area, while the Eternit Miniature Golf course has been updated with a new pain job and has been felted. However, the course was not open and was inaccessible!?
