Restrained exterior with flush, fluted pilasters. Built c1930 by F.T. Verity & S. Beverly. The cinema closed in 2004 since when it has apparently suffered from considerable vandalism while attempts to list it have been rejected by English Heritage. In 2010 permission was granted for its demolition.
