A photograph I took of the former Adelphi Theatre in February 2010:

Currently a rental ballroom.
The main structure began as the Jubilee Roller Skating Rink opened in 1887, the roof is the same, and probably also the structure holding it up. The facade mostly sates from 1922, but there was an upgrade in the 1930s judging from the style of the lobby in later years, and some plasterwork inside.
