The building is still very much called The Old Savoy.

The organ was only on loan and was removed by its owner before the theatre closed. It is now in store. The original Compton was removed by Alfred Davies &Co, a local organ builder. Some parts were re-used but it is thought the majority of the instrument was scrapped.

A view from the stage. This shows the front extension to the circle (and the pillars which support it) and the rear of the two mini-cinemas which were created under the circle in 1974. There are two staircases on each side, which must lead lead to the front circle extension.
