|short description=The Empire Cinema (as it was formerly known) was built in the early 1900's and opened for business on 8 May 1913, still presenting shows in 1929. Each ‘show’ consisted of silent films accompanied by a pianist, together with a ‘turn’ (live act). It closed in April 1932, which was recorded as the reason why the manager committed suicide by gassing on 3 May in his office. |
