My father worked at this cinema from 1965 to 1973, I was 5 year old and my brother was 9 years old in 1968- we use to spend the day in the cinema in the morning to about 3 pm we use to help clean the movie room up find money and stuff, go on the stage and sing beatle songs lol- then we use to walk to Newburrys store stare at all the beatles rolling stones albums go downstairs to the toy room they also had a small room with pin ball and gun shooting arcade machines, there was also a store on the other side right next to the cinema they sold coffee and comic books I still have my hulk comic books from there, and of course they had Floyds store about 70 yards away from the cinema but that was too far away my father would not let us go there, sometimes we would sneak their to look at the toys and P.F. FLYER SNEAKERS. I ust to hang out in the little ticket room go up stairs they also had a basement very scary looking but the cinema owner had a son alittle older them me and my brother he had some cool rock albums down there and alittle record player . I have many more memories of the first and many movies I saw there, planet of the apes- mary poppings
