a bit harsh, Im guessing it was humans that built it lol

I hate postwar architect humans

I am disgusted that this has been demo`d. Building in this style are rare enough as it is and this was a good restorable example. Fuck those that caused its downfall.

Just to jump in on an old post @Speed , the cinema you mentioned in Worksop was called the Regal. It has been many things over the years and was a fully functioning community arts centre just over ten years ago… now a local eye sore which awaits plans to turn into flats I think.
Really surprised it isn’t on this site as it has been well explored. Hopefully you’ll find this link of interest.

A friend of mine explored it a few years ago. It is in really good condition inside even the old projector is still there. Last I knew it had been well sealed but I haven't been past for a year or so now.

Yeh it was open a few years ago and before that too but im just to catch it at the right moment.

Very nice lines in that old one, good to see the projection room that’s my jackpot photo in any cinema threads . Thanks
for making a old projectionist very happy
