The Aberdeen Picture House was designed by Scarborough Architect Frank Tugwell in 1920.Tugwell had a distinctive style and cinemas/theatres were one of his specialisms. The ground floor of the building has been in retail use for many years but externally the upper floors retain their original faience (a characteristic material of cinemas) and robust lettering. It forms a commercial group with the Scarborough Evening News Office and Head Post Office
