PLAYLAND
NAME:
Playland
TYPE: Amusement
Arcade
LOCATION: Union
Square/Centre-Wednesbury
COMMENTS: I remember
Playland very well,it was located along side the Union shopping centre and as a child my mother used to purchase wall
paper from the nearby decorating shop located just further
along outside the centre area near the steps which led down
to `The Shambles`.As you entered the arcade i recall
`Cosmic Alien` facing you along the far
wall,i used to love playing that game and now own a Cosmic Alien cabinet of my own,it is similar to but better than Galaxian with the very last
alien of each wave turning into a huge winged demon
swooping down the screen with a loud and distinctive
beeping sound....great stuff! 
Later on with the demise of the union centre area Playland
moved around the corner into Union St.
