The former Gaumont Palace cinema, opened in 1931 and closed in 1960. After a variety of subsequent uses, it finally became derelict, but was revived in 2005 to become a gospel-based centre for the performing arts. A fine example of Art-Deco in a semi-classical style, using faience facings for the main facade.
