Phillip,The 1914 edition of Kine Weekly Yearbook gives the Pavilion as the only cinema operating in Ormskirk. Same in the 1927 edition. It obviously was not a ‘new’ cinema when it was redecorated in 1925. I have no details for an Institute.

How can a 14-year-old cinema be called “a new picture theatre”?

And why should a “new hall” be “entirely redecorated”.

A new picture theatre, the Pavilion, has been opened at Ormskirk to “succeed” the Institute, which, in future, will probably be used for whist drives and dances, etc. Mr. F. W. Locke, a well-known Liverpool exhibitor, has an interest in both halls. The Pavilion has seating capacity for nearly 600 persons and has been entirely redecorated. Mr. Fred Locke is managing the new hall.
