Since November 2019, work has been carried out to turn the former Byron building into a four-screen, two-floor cinema, called The Arc. Work on the complex should be completed in March 2020. Melcorpo already runs Arc cinemas in England and Ireland.

The community group called the byron community project is trying to raise funds to restore and reopen this cinema. Its such an amazing building and is one of only five Alfred J Thraves cinemas remaining. They are looking for any old pictures and history to help build a heritage file
