The old hall was not demolished in 2001!
It was stripped almost to the shell and rebuilt internally with a new, steeper, larger balcony. I was very familiar with this hall at the time having supplied and fitted the new seating from Lino Sonego, Italy.
Dear Ken,
Second screen in redundant first floor area opened January 2003. Original auditorium circle/stalls untouched. Taken over by the operators of the Coliseum Cinema, Brecon August 2003. Now 362/150
