Gnoll Hall Cinema

Originally built as the Gnoll Skating Rink in the early 1900’s, it closed in 1909.

It was converted into a cinema, known as the Gnoll Hall in 1912. In 1923 it was closed briefly for re-furbishment and came under the ownership of the Swansea based chain of cinemas known as South Wales Cinemas Ltd. In March 1937 it was leased to the Union Cinemas chain and taken over by Associated British Cinemas (ABC) when they took control of Union in October 1937. The lease ran out in October 1939 and it reverted back into the control of South Wales Cinemas Ltd.

The Gnoll Hall Cinema was closed in the early 1960’s and was later demolished for a garage to be built on the site.
