A closer address is 210 Holly Oak Ln, Cheswold, DE.

The original entrance road has been removed. Holly Oak Lane was added after the drive-in closed and the property now connects to the lane and not Main Street.

You can see the drive-in intact, although it doesn’t look in great shape, in a 1981 aerial. It was still relatively intact in 1992, but was totally demolished by 2002.

Today, the property appears to be a self-storage business with most of the drive-in covered by a large parking area. There is no trace of the drive-in remaining.
