The local council took over the cinema in April 2024. Ashford Borough Council, or ABC as it is often known, worked with Big Picture Limited on plans. It is now called Ashford Cinema.

Picturehouse are to surrender lease on this property at Easter 2024. The owner, the local council, will operate for a period but the longer term is unclear. Presumably they will seek a new private operator. The owners of Picturehouse also operate the Cineworld in Ashford.

I should add that the façade is fronted by dozens of gold mesh panels, which is at least unusual and eye catching, if not beautiful.

The foyer containing a bar and dining area is on the first floor, to be reached by a lift being installed. Also not yet open (Dec 2018) is the performance space for live arts. A glazed office sits under screen one and all 6 screens are on the next level up. The exterior view shows some “snow dogs” who have survived a charitable event, an some gilded picture frames.
