This imposing building is on the corner of Neath Road and Coronation Avenue. The site on which the building stands was acquired in 1925. The hall formerly housed a cinema and theatre on the first floor, with performances usually attracting a capacity audience of about 750. The ground floor has had a games room, including billiards and snooker, a reading room and, since the early 1960s, a licensed bar.
