The first film to be shown was 'Mary Regan' with Anita Stewart. It was closed on January 18, 1959, seating at the front was still on wooden benches, locally the cinema was called the 'bug-hutch'. Disinfectant was liberally used. The last film to be shown was 'My Cousin Rachel' before the building was demolished.
