Tameside Hippodrome, Oldham Road, Ashton-under-Lyne
The Tameside Hippodrome originally opened in 1904 as the Ashton Empire Hippodrome Theatre. In 1932 the Theatre was closed reopened as a cinema which was renamed the "New Empire" in the following year. In 1964 the Theatre was bought by the EMI group and renamed the ABC. This name was to continue until 1974 when it again closed. After refusing an application to convert it to bingo, Tameside Council operated it as "Tameside Theatre" until 1992 when it became "Tameside Hippodrome". In 2004, Ken Dodd unveiled a blue plaque celebrating the theatre’s centenary (Image]). The building has been vacant since the theatre closed in 2008 and now looks in a very sorry state. It was given Grade II listed status in 2009 (after it had closed) as “a good example of an Edwardian theatre later converted to cinema usage, which is becoming rare” (Historic England List Entry Number: 1393438 https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1393438 ). http://menmedia.co.uk/tamesideadvertiser/news/s/1043583_curtain_comes_down_on_theatre - Tameside Advertiser "Curtain Comes Down On Theatre" http://www.arthurlloyd.co.uk/ManchesterTheatres/TamesideHippodromeAshtonManchester.htm - Music Hall & Theatre History
