Here stood a church building which had been converted to a local theatre. It was gutted by fire in late 2004. A fund was created to rebuild it appropriately called The Phoenix Fund. In 2006 it had raised enough money to start the construction, then the funds ran-out and building stopped leaving this steel frame. The amateur groups which had performed here continue to utilise the facilities at Trent College http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1047761. Update Sept 2010: Eventually the gap in the middle of the remaining building was filled with something more modest http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2086420 .
