A LOCAL authority is hosting a free day of rollerskating at a doomed leisure facility.
Harrow Council is throwing open the doors to Byron Hall, in Christchurch Avenue, for all-day skating today.
If the council continues with its plans, the hall, along with the iconic 1970s skate park and the existing leisure centre, will be torn down to make way for a new £36million leisure centre.
The Harrow Skate Park Users' Association has launched a campaign to stop the skate park being demolished, fearing a new park would not be as good.
Members believe the plans will diminish the borough's pedigree for rollerskating, skate boarding and mountain biking, and skaters from as far away as Melbourne and California have supported their campaign to save the park from the bulldozers.
