Empire Cinema

I added this recently and later noticed that the manageress listed on the program is a one E downs. This is undoubtedly the daughter of the original owners. She is listed in the 1940 local registry as cinema employee, That is twenty six years previously. That would mean that the same family ran the cinema for 45 years at the very least. Since this program is dated 1966 and the cinema closed in 1973 there is a strong possibility that the same family owned it and ran it right up to its closure.
