On the right is the formerly splendid Grand Cinema which opened on 18th December 1922 with a production of "Anthony and Cleopatra" performed on the stage. The following day it screened its first film ""A Prince of Lovers" plus a Harold Lloyd short comedy. Films finished in 1977 and now it does bingo.http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/22430
