Located on West side of Edgware Road, between Cuthbert Street and Crompton Street. The Royal Picture Theatre operated from around 1913 with seating for 400. The owner was H.B. Herman, who also operated the People’s Picture Parlour on Walworth Road, Southwark.

By 1937, it had been re-named Select Electric Theatre, and had 600 seats and a 25 feet wide proscenium in the auditorium. It had closed by 1940.

The building and all other surrounding buildings have been demolished, and a series of 1960’s built, council tower block flats are on the area.
