The old picture-house on top of Keady Hill. This was opened in May 1956, run by Charlie Mallon and his family. It was the busiest venue in the town until it closed June 1990. It seated almost 400 people. Granemore Road is to the right and in the distance are the hills of Armaghbrague. The cinema has been derelict for decades and Keady is still void of a cinema.
