Thrill-seekers currently have to stay away

Eerie pictures show Drayton Manor Theme Park closed off to customers.

The Staffordshire theme park, in Drayton Bassett, is among many visitors attraction sites across the country forced to remain closed due to the coronavirus lockdown.

These pictures, reported by Birmingham Live, show the empty site which would typically be filled to the brim with thrill-seekers during prolonged spells of beautiful weather, as we are currently seeing.

In a typical good year of business, Drayton Manor would be looking at entertaining 1.5 million people.

But after the Government-ordered lockdown to combat the coronavirus in March, it has remained shut for the start of the theme park season.

Take a look at the pictures below and let us know in the comments what your favourite memory of the theme park is.
