The royalty theatre..

This theatre opened up as a cinema in October 1930,designed by architect Horace G Bradley.massive crowds were there for the opening.it was owned by a local company but was taken over by ABC cinemas in 1935.the cinema shut down in 1963 and converted in to a bingo hall.that declined eventually and shut its doors in 2010.the upper seats still remain and the organ.the building is of a grand Art Deco design.familiar with many cinemas opened around that time..in 2012 a cannabis farm was discovered in there after people seeing suspicious activity and a funny smell coming from the building..this was the second visit of the day with zedstar..
