Mr Blobby's Home
Cricket Park was also the home of BBC television's Mr Blobby's house, named 'Dunblobbin' situated at the rear of the park. Mr. Blobby, the house and its gardens appeared as an attraction in the park in 1994, but it soon closed after just two years as fans lost interest with the TV character shortly after Noel's House Party went off air. Remains of the house and its 'blobbyland' theme park can still be seen today, overgrown and strewn with fallen leaves and mud.

Famous quotes containing the word home:
“Funny ain’t it. Here I am worrying about a woman. Men don’t worry much about women when they’re around. But when it gets way off from home like we are now, and where he knows he’s going a lot further away ... I mean that’s when a woman gets workin’ in your mind. You reckon you’re a fool for not noticin’ before how, how big a part of things they be. There ain’t nothin’ like seein’ a woman’s face.”
—Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)
