I visited this rather sad little cinema in 1974 to see a showing of the film Woodstock. I recall that it was very tired and on its last legs. It showed films only three days a week the remainder was used for Bingo. The posters were designed locally in red and blue. On the night I visited there were about 20 patrons.
