The former Woolworths in Selby

Spotting a Woolworth ghost sign in Selby, North Yorkshire.

We noticed the remains of a Woolworth sign on the former store on Gowthorpe in Selby while having a wander through the town.

The H of the original WOOLWORTH sign above one of the doors

Before its closure in 2009 the shop had been a Woolworths Local store.

Woolworth became Woolworths in 1984

It's now a Yorkshire Trading Company shop.

A look at the Pitch & Putt Mini Golf course at Onchan Pleasure Park on the Isle of Man.

On 'Minigolf Monday' this week I asked "Where in the world was this Pitch & Putt miniature golf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour?".

The answer was the Pitch & Putt Mini Golf at Onchan Pleasure Park on the Isle of Man.

We played the course during our holiday on the Isle of Man in 2018.

Onchan Pleasure Park is also home to a 9-hole Crazy Golf course.

Crazy Golf at Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park in Wales

Looking back at a lost minigolf course.

Last week I asked "Where in the world was this crazy golf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour?".

The answer was at Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park in Wales.

We first played the course in 2014 and revisited it in 2017 and 2018.

Sadly the Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park has now closed down.

We're glad we got to stay at the holiday camp and play the course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we did.
