Stockwell/Brixton skatepark

I grew up not far from here in Streatham, but back then it was a no go area if you wanted to leave with your bike so I never rode it apart from once very briefly at night :(
What puzzles me is why in some photos it appears to be a red colour, was it painted or stained at some point ?
I'm planning to ride it again this year :)

Just found this

So it was renovated a few years ago, but I don't remember it being red back in the 80s, but like I say I only rode it once & at night.
Pooch:
Used go down there.. Ruff as fook. I grew up in balham till I was 10 or 11. Steve69 got his bike stolen off him as soon as he got there.. Never remember it being that red colour.. Strange one that.

That's a shame about you not leaving with your bike :(
I heard loads of stories of this kind of thing at Stockwell BITD, so we avoided it :(
