[The Shepshed Diamondback]

that place looks wicked, good report I think your pictures look great.

Still accessible, go down and take a look, post a report and share the love.

are there cctv cameras?

 

[GRONK]

Its not a projector its a spot lamp.

I bet you get sick of saying that.

Nice report mate, can't beat an old bingo hall.

I saw the very last film shown here. At the end they put a slide up thanking us all for our custom or words to that effect.

Anyone know it's current state of accessibility concerning the recent ongoing renovations?

I went past a few weeks ago and conversion is looking near completion, not much left of the theatre except a couple of walls.

Yeah I went by there yesterday and they have a board at the front showing progress photos for the inside. Looks like most of it is torn down. Shame but you can't expect these buildings to live long in cities especially.

It was unused for 6yrs before redevelopment finally started.....that's quite a long stretch

Nothing ever really happened to it - a bit more strip-out, maybe, but mostly just ongoing deterioration. Still there now a decade or more on and just had a rather convenient fire in the one hitherto well-preserved (and still used) part of the building...
