I too have had trouble finding any details. It certainly looks like a former cinema, two photos of the Blackburn Hall and one of the Palace can be seen here :

The only cinema in Rothwell listed in Kinematograph Yearbook’s through the 1930’s and 1940’s is the 900 seat, Picture Palace located on Ingram Parade and operated by Rothwell Public Service Ltd. No mention of an ‘Empire’ during these years and by the mid 1960’s there is no listing at all for a cinema in Rothwell.
