NOTES: Harry Weedon, assisted by Budge Reid, was responsible for the design of this cinema and Eugene Mollo and Michael Egan for the interior decoration. Closed as an Odeon and taken over by Classic in 1972, this cinema definitively closed in 2002. The building was converted into 'The Old Cinema Bed and Sofa Store' which opened in 2004. The original exterior remains intact and most of the interior decoration has been retained.
