I would post more history on the cinema but there is quite a bit already on here if I’m honest so I won’t bore you with that.

Good to see this cropping up again.

It looks like they've started stripping it out? There are some trailers etc in the yard now so maybe the end is nigh. Glad you guys managed to get in alright!

Quite like this, the b&w gives it an edge. Nice shots. Not liking that mold on the walls though..
