A May 2003 photograph of the former Embassy Cinema:

I think some of these windows could be accessed from the manager’s office, which led off the foyer on the left. Disconcerting to be sitting in there when he changed the stills – could be seen by passers by!
The sister cinema over the road (Regent) became a bingo hall and was later demolished.
Originally, there were large windows in the faience tiling on both sides of the entrance. These contained stills and details of forthcoming attractions, which could be changed from inside the foyer. These windows were still there when I left the area in 1970. Subsequently, the front was retiled, so that it now has an almost prison-like quality, unrelieved by anything apart from the entrance and that looks narrower and less impressive than it was.
