A Fantastic building,especially inside, most of the interior features remain,including the seats on the balcony, I have been in there recently,not to look at the bathrooms though!this is an example of how these buildings can be put to other uses and not just demolished!. My late grandmother used to work here as a cleaner when it was a cinema in the late 50’s,apparently under the stage is where she had her tea breaks!!
