Description

This cinema building opened in 1938 under the name of the Ritz Cinema. It became the ABC cinema in 1972, then went through a number of different operators and name changes, including being used as a bingo hall. Odeon Theatres took it over in 2000 but the cinema closed in May 2014 when an Odeon multiplex opened in Garrick Lane.
