Viewed in April 2018. The Cinema Treasures website records that this was originally a pre-First World War cinema named the Electric Theatre which was later closed. It reopened in late 1939 as the Hanbury Cinema. In 1955 it was a part of the Jackson Withers circuit and was still operating in 1965. It became a bingo club in the 1970s. The building appears to have been derelict since the bingo club closed many years ago.
