Built in 1938 the building remains in its original state, with only minor alterations to bio room for the instalation of the Philips dp70 projectors. Built by local builders, the auditorium features its original light fittings and fans which are still in use today, these are complimented by two figurines placed high on the proscenium wall. It is the home of many artifacts from older cinemas that have been demolished.
