A early-20th Century picture of this theatre was seen in a photographic collection entitled “Old Pembrokeshire” by Roger W. Davies. Information on the existence and destiny if this village theatre would certainly be of interest.
Today the building is in use as Paddles Nightclub.

Here is a photo of Main Street in Pembroke. The caption in Roger Davies' book of photos, Old Pembrokeshire, reads:
“A view of Main Street, Pembroke looking into Castle Terrace and showing the Castle in the background. On the right is Williams' Shoe Shop with its impressive portico, alas no longer standing; then there is Halls the Bakers, next to Pembroke Cinema. Another impressive card by Mortimer Allen of Tenby.”
The Pembroke Cinema, Pembroke Town is listed in Kine' Yearbooks from at least 1937 until at least 1980 as Haggar’s Cinema operated by Walter Haggar. By 1980 L.W.Haggar & Son were operators and it is listed with a bingo club above the 277 seat cinema.
I can remember seeing Plaza Suite here when on holiday once. It was very small with seats on a single level and you entered the auditorium at the screen end of the building.
