Nowhere near as much as you'd like once the vultures have taken their share of the budget for everything other than nice curvy bits...

i remember skating at newbury indoor skatepark (wheelies)back in the late 70's an all wooden park

Now you're talking   

£200k could secure an indoor all wood venue for a good few years.  Would the powers that be consider it?

No.

They take years to get built from initial planning. Have a chat with maverick industries on Facebook or russ maverick on facebook
