The only available photo of the building which once housed ‘The Ideal Cinema’ on Clive Street, Bolton. (As far as I know.) Seen here, ironically, through the skeleton of the new ‘Lido Cinema’ being built on Bradshawgate. This shows the building converted into the motor-trade premises of ‘Arnold Kay Garage Ltd.’ The building burnt down in 1980, and was demolished.
