I regularly saw films here as a child and I watched the Beatles film “Yellow Submarine” here. It was a wonderful cinema and its a shame its only now used for Bingo and not for films and live shows.
Buddy Holly and Des O Connor appeared here on the same bill in March 1958.
A 2003 photo can be seen here.
Another exterior view is here.
