Ritz, 53-57 Blaby Road, South Wigston
This building started life in 1920 as The Picture House, an early cinema. In 1938 it received a new external facade, and was renamed the Ritz. It ceased to be a cinema in 1980, when like so many others it became a bingo hall, but retained the Ritz as its name. There are no notices outside, so possibly it is no longer in use for bingo.
