Opened 2001, the result of a 3 year campaign by local parents and young people. A petition of 5,000+ signatures asking for help to provide a extreme sports facilities. The Council donated the site provided they could raise the funds to develop it as a community skatepark. They did and The Front was born! It has continued since from money raised by entrance fees, fund raisers, donations and the generous help of it's volunteers. All money raised goes into the upkeep and improvements of the park.
