The Club Cinema, which occupied the top floor of the building, ceased showing films in 1962 (at around the same time as neighbouring Shildon Hippodrome) and became a ballroom operated by the Club.

I understand that during this period the auditorium retained its cinematic appearance with the stage and proscenium, replete with house tabs, intact.

I believe that the ballroom ceased functioning sometime in the 1990’s and that this area remains disused to this very day.
