I was brought up near The Supreme Cinema in the 1950’s. My mum and dad used to take me sometimes on a week night as we had no television. Saturday mornings it was crowded with children. I think we paid 6d sixpence to go in. I remember a Mr. Buckley was the manager. My fathers sister my Aunty Betty was one of the ushers there. There have been some photos of the exterior on facebook. When it closed it was bought by a Mr. Coathup who made it into a Diamond Stylus Factory during the 1960’s. They moved to a new and larger factory around the 1970’s. I think it then became a Kwik Save supermarket and later a Co-op Supermarket.
