Salford Cinema
This building on the corner of Chapel Street and Trinity Way has an unusual history. It was originally built as a Scottish Presbyterian Church in 1846, complete with tall spire. The present frontage was then added in 1912 and it was opened as the Salford Cinema, (one of the first in Salford and Manchester) which then changed in 1938 to the Rex Cinema, surviving until 1958 before becoming a bingo hall between 1967 and 1985. Now the wheel has come full circle, and the building is once again a House of God as The New Harvest Christian Fellowship Church.

New Harvest Christian Fellowship (former Salford Cinema), 194 Chapel Street, Salford
This building is used by the New Harvest Christian Fellowship as a church. The Fellowship was founded in California in the USA. The church is evangelical, and believes in a literal interpretation of the words of the Bible. The majority of the Fellowship's churches appear to be in California.
The building itself started life as a Scottish Presbyterian Church in the 1840's. It was converted into a cinema in 1912, which involved considerable rebuilding, including a new front facade, which it retains. On this, the name Salford Cinema remains, and the date AD 1912. The latter is partly obscured in this picture by a lighting standard. Later the cinema was renamed Rex, and eventually it became the Rex Bingo Hall. In the 1980's it became a church again. It is a Grade II listed building.
