It closed it 2006, because it was one of the oldest rides at Alton Tower's and it was hard to keep it looked after it's a bit like the space invader at Blackpool which also got shutdown for the exact same reason, but i don't think it's good that they both got shut down because they were great rides.

The Black Hole ride at Alton Towers closed in 2005 due to maintenance issues, costly upkeep, and declining popularity. The ride was also outdated compared to newer and more exciting attractions at the theme park.
