Grangetown Lyric remembered

posted by irishcine on October 8, 2008 at 7:29am

The Lyric Theatre, Grangetown was destroyed in a spectacular fire in May 1995. There were no injuries and the site is now a playground. The old cinema is recalled in this recent article in the local press, with some amazing pictures of the intense blaze, which have just surfaced as well as earlier shots.
