Above should read “ by the 1970s ONLY the Pavilion Carnoustie was still operating as a cinema.”
The Angus Cinema Company was a small circuit which operated the Regal and Pavilion Cinemas in Carnoustie, the Rio Newport on Tay and the Alhambra Monifieth ( acquired from Gaumont British). By the 1970s on the Pavilion Carnoustie was still operating as a cinema under the management of Tom Suttie, managing director of Angus Cinema Co. The Regal was disused at this time, Newport on Tay Rio was an antiques shop and Monifieth Alhambra had become a garage and service station. When Tom Suttie retired in the early ‘70s he sold the Pavilion to an enterprising ex projectionist from the Dominion Edinburgh who renamed it the Dominion. It has since closed and been demolished as has the former Monifieth cinema. Newport on Tay Rio survives in alternative use.
Last listed in the Kine Year Books in 1958. Was the Shotz bar after All Stars but even that now seems to have closed.
