According to Google street view, the cinema has now been demolished and turned into a car park.

Does anyone know if the band Marmalade played a gig at the Plaza Theatre cinema which used to be on Borough Road Birkenhead, in the 1960s and does anyone know if the Hollies played a gig there round that time. Any info appreciated. Times and dates if possible.

As revealed by our friends on the architectural website SkyscraperCity, the North-West heritage website “20thCenturyImages” has a glorious array of the post-war life and times photographs of primarily the Liverpool and Merseyside area.

Included in the Birkenhead section are a selection of cinemas in the Wirral area, and here is the ABC Birkenhead in the early 1960s with its ‘Billy Liar’ presentation:
