Scala Cinema

Northern Despatch Entertainments page dated April 12 1961 uploaded to photos section.

The Scala cinema was still going at this time and despite claims here and elsewhere that it became the Essoldo, it does not appear with that company’s advertising block, the top of which can just be seen at the foot of the cinema column.

I would add that I only ever recall the locals referring to this cinema as the “Scala on Eldon street”.
