The VERY Wild West: Tumbleweeds take over abandoned Wild West theme park in Cornwall after saloon doors closed in 2009 Once full of excited children, the streets of the former tourist attraction are now deserted and covered with grass Eerie photographs show how nature is slowly reclaiming what was the Spirit Of The West park near St Columb Major The gunslingers are long gone and tumbleweeds have taken over at this abandoned American Wild West theme park, which hasn't seen a cowboy, not even one in fancy dress, for years. The saloon bar doors last swung open in 2009, since when the Yellow Rose Hotel, the County Jail, and the lawyer's office, along with the rest of the Spirit Of The West park's buildings, have been left untouched. Eerie photographs showing long-gone visitors dressed in cowboy costumes are still pinned to the wooden walls, while dust gathers on the bottles of bourbon still standing on bar-room tables at the tourist attraction at Winnard's Perch, near St Columb Major in Cornwall. A photographer, who uses the name Urbex-SW and took these pictures, said: 'What was once a happy, bustling and buzzing location has been left to ruin. 'I've seen some amazing places, but this was something so different from all the rest. What was most interesting was the pictures of the families who visited the park when it was open as they capture the happiness and excitement of the children. So long, pardner: What was once the Spirit Of The West cowboy theme park in Winnard's Perch, Cornwall, has lain deserted since the last visitor left in 2009 Happy memories: Photographs of families who long ago enjoyed a day out at the American Wild West attraction are still pinned to walls of the wooden buildings Time at the bar: A bottle of bourbon still stands on the table of the saloon bar - visitors to the park could watch shoot-outs and see the Wild West brought to life Room at the inn: The Yellow Rose Hotel has seen better days, its wooden balcony splintering as it is left to the elements, while weeds have sprung up along the street Dust gathers on an old poster advertising a 'Panther and Bear Fight' at the Wild West theme park - which hasn't seen a visitor since 2009 The cell in the theme park's jail has been empty for years, but a poster still hangs on the wall and only the damp ceiling hints at its dereliction The gunsmith and the barber's shop still stand on a side-street of the deserted cowboy theme park, photographed by Urbex-SW five years after the last visitor left Bottles of bourbon whiskey and a piano still stand, untouched, in the saloon bar in the theme park - but mould is creeping over the piano as the years go by Wanted posters are still pinned to a wall, offering thousands of dollars for long-missing cattle rustlers, and warning 'thieves, thugs, fakirs, and bunko-steerers' to behave The long-abandoned park is slowly rotting under the grey Cornish skies, while weeds and grass grow over what was a high street lined with visitors Once a bustling family attraction, the theme park is slowly becoming dilapidated, as nature reclaims it and the buildings fall apart
