Blackpool Ferris Wheel, In 1896 the Winter Gardens opened its ‘London Eye’ style ‘Gigantic Wheel’ at the corner of Adelaide Street and Coronation Street. Unfortunately, the 220 feet high wheel, with its 30 carriages holding 30 or more passengers, was never a great success and it made its last trip on 20th October 1928, shortly afterwards it was demolished. |
