In late 2014 the closed snooker club is being converted into an indoor market. The curved ceiling should be revealed again , as seen on You Tube.
The book “Margate’s seaside Heritage” notes the façade has panels decorated with masks and musical instruments, suggesting the building may have been conceived as a Music Hall
