Another report from my backlog og photos


Visited with TranKmasT

"" The cinema opened on 26 September 1938 with a personal appearance by George Formby followed by his latest film “I See Iceâ€￾. It then settled into an uneventful routine mainly showing films but with around six full weeks of variety shows on the stage. No major changes were made to the design of the building and it eventually closed on December 30, 1967. It became a bingo hall almost immediately after and continued for over 40 years.""

With a little clean up and repair this could be brought back to live. Yet why does not one try yo find family member's of the people in the photo's as they may want them. Just a suggestion
