Originally the Dominion cinema, built in 1936-7 to the design of the architect F E Bromige, a specialist in cinema design. It became the Granada before becoming a bingo club in 1972. A notable feature is the cantilevering of the central portion of the frontage, creating an entrance canopy. The deep fascia is a modern addition concealing the upper part of the original facade. Listed Grade II.
