The Clanton Drive-In was opened on October 15, 1949 with Gary Cooper in “Pride of the Yankees”. By 1955 it was owned by B. Clark and had space for 416 cars. It was still open in the late-1980’s but had closed by the early-1990’s. The property was occupied by mobile homes until 2012. Since then it has been used as a gravel dump, with the screen overgrown with vines.
