There is a campaign by the CTA to get Ashford Borough Council to retain the cinema and invest in providing a civic theatre for the town rather than build yet more flats.Lets hope they succeed!

The Kentish Express for 8th March 2018 reports that a steady decline in business has caused Mecca to announce termination of the lease, and the newspaper says the building has been sold to Ashford Borough Council as a key town centre site. Demolition to improve the vista of Ashford Church is one option, with the frontage retained.
