Great Cinema when I was a kid,last film I saw there was Jack the giant killer!!! now being demolished for home units but happily the facade is to be kept and restored to the original and to be called the Crescent with the original neon sign on top., It is eerie seeing it at the moment as I hadnt seen the original facade in almost 50 years.
Going by Google streetview it seems to have been gutted if not demolished completely. It was subdivided into two levels in the 1970’s with the upstairs becoming a Roller-rink and downstairs an amusement arcade. After the rink closed it became a furniture store and stayed that way for many years. A sad loss.
My only visit to this theatre was to see ‘Summer Holiday'with my school mate.
