1943 seems to be the year that the cinema’s name changed to the Palace, as the 1944 KYB has two cinemas listed, both with the same phone number of 109… Borough Green Electric Theatre, Symox sound equipment, 300 seats, pictures and variety. The second entry gives Palace, proprietor H.H. Sawdy, Morrison sound equipment, once nightly shows, no seating capacity given unfortunately though.
