Blackpool Tower is an iconic structure on the North West coast, apparently it was modelled on the Eiffel Tower and was completed in 1894.
Merlin Entertainment (Madame Tussauds, Alton Towers, Warwick Castle) have taken over the management of the building and set about thoroughly modernising it. The old aquarium at the base of the building was closed, the fish being transferred to Sealife, in its place the North Wests own Dungeon.Based on the other attractions around the country and Europe depicts the violent history of the north west , including the infamous Pendle Witches .

There is a RR type Pennymangle machine in the shop by the exit. I think it maybe possible to access the machine with out paying. This machine may not remain here very long....
The pennies all have a ring border and The Blackpool Tower Dungeon in text. Each costs £1 plus the penny. The pennies roll very well, as usual, but the designs are all typical Merlin type.

the Dungeons are currently CLOSED for refurbishment. But nonetheless the NEW machine is onsite in the doorway to the Promenade of the Tower Arcade. internet connectivity is an issue in this position, you may struggle paying contactless. Something I didn't know until studying the picture after, it appears you can use cash as well.

Machine 2: (2024) Each coin costs £1.50, the penny is supplied from an internal hopper. They are actually blank copper tokens. It is currently by the exit door for both the dungeons and the tower arcade so you do not need to pay to access the machine.

Collectors Note: With all Pennymangle Machines It is better to have the Queen's head against the design die, otherwise the 'tail' design could show in the 3d design
