Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk Hookup Spots and Stuff Only Locals Know

Hook-up Spots (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs - a bench, a corner: you name it.)

• Abbey Gardens
• THE BEST PLACE TO MEET UP IN BURY IS THE CATTLE MARKET AS THERE IS LOADS TO DO THERE, THER ARE BENCHES AND HIGH TABLES TO JUMP OFF.
• Gainsborough field and a bottle of white lightning cider!Those were the days!
• From my recent, if brief, visit to Bury, the chief recreation for the under 25's appeared to be driving rather sad 'hot hatches' in circles around the centre of town. The Abbey gardens seemed to attract the nu-metal hooded sweatshirt crowd during the day and everyone else just wandered aimlessly about.
• Abbey Gardens are a great place to meet up with mates and sunbathe in the summer.
• Moreton Hall Community Centre! All the Slags and G Boys you could ever dream of, he he. Also, those Sad bastard G-Boyz hang outsite King Edward VI Upper between 8.30am till 9am and later in the day (after they're gaz around town) at 3.30pm till 4.30 pm. Expect to see lowered down suspension, shiny alloys, blacked out windows, e reg Ford Escorts occupied by a 20 year old, unemployed, spotty, baseball cap wearing Sad Twat (aka GARY BOY)
• On the bench outside Maccie Dees. The Abbey Gardens. The corn exchange have been holding a few nights especially for under 18's.
• I personally am a fan of the cornexchange steps or the tree in front of woolworths. Both rock if you wanna pull a gaz boy.
• Abbey Gardens,(especially in the summer) although you do tend to get 13 year olds hanging around having crafty fags.
• The Abbey Gardens was by far the best place to kick back with friends and relax. The abbey ruins also provided a degree of privacy for various activities...

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
