Opened as the Royal Theatre in 1930. It was twinned in the early-1970’s and a third screen added in the early-2000’s. It was originally operated by March Brothers Theatres and later March Theatres. J & J took over operations in 2005. It was closed in 2009. There is a Hollywood Video store in the lobby of the theatre.
