Yet more information. Closed in December 1994 when the new Omniplex opened and was demolished in May 1995. Sounds like it was owned by Ward Anderson from mid-1970s. A newspaper report stated it consisted of three “theatres”.

Further information, the Picturedrome opened end of February 1914. Notably run by Patrick Coffey but from about 1960 by Mrs Gillooly. It is said to have closed in the 1990s.

Picturedrome was open by October 1916 when The Miser’s Gift was shown. Looks like the auditorium at the back is now a hostel.
