Constructed inside an existing 1889 red brick building, the Novelty Theatre most likely began its career as a 5c admission nickelodeon. It was operating by 1907. One thing is certain, television put an end to enough ticket sales to keep this tiny cinema in operation.
Please, share with us anything you may know about the old Novelty Theatre.

Anyone have more info or more photos?
