Artist's Comments

Believe it or not, there was a time when this was the most popular cinema for miles. It's across the road from my first primary school so we would go here at the end of term. Another cinema, one of those giant chain ones with twice the amount of screens, was built a 15 minute bus journey away and put it out of business.

Shame.

Awww pure nostalgia, here in sweden we had one called "the dragon" and people cried lots when it was bought up and torn down or something, makes me wish I had taken pictures of the place cause it rocked too :love:

It's a shame when places we love close, especially when they get boarded up or bulldozed. I wish someone could refurbish it.

Thanks for commenting XD

wow, that is a shame :( a very similar thing has happened in Plymouth, with one shut down completely, and another struggling to continue, the nex multiplex has none of the character of the older cinemas, such a waste.
:iconallyclare:
Yeah thats the thing about these big places... no character, and none of the same community atmosphere...

God, I sound so old.
