The Cinema opened in Febuary 1960 and had 1244 seats and was owned by Rank, In 1987 it was close and the rear stalls were converted into 2 smaller screens and re opened as the Odeon. When the the six screen multiplex opened it closed in August 2005.
There is still power to the cinema but could not find the lights to the entrance and lobby there was 1 door locked next to the stairs. Access was fun wasn’t the easiest. Once in was a great explore

That's really, very very good. I love all these cinemas and theatres, they have a certain charm.:lol:
 
Well done

Hello mate,
Glad to see you made the grand entrance .
What an entrance & no red carpet ;)
Nice explore & great pics. :)

SK :)
 
Really good, and the 'Gents' is a fab shot. Your pictures capture what is now a common home TV.
 
Nice good cinema man. You're really managing to get around mate :mrgreen: Cheers!
 
im going to harlow sometime soon, cant wait now!
 
Looks grand. I wouldn't leave tags and dates though, it's one sure fire way to get a building locked up tight.
