Converted, like so many cinemas, into a bingo hall, this site closed in the early 21st century and has sat disused since. At the time of writing it is owned by an evangelical church but conversion is delayed by planning difficulties, whilst this grade II* listed building deteriorates to the extent that it is now on the official At Risk register.
