NORTH ROAD

The forlorn appearance of the old Grand Theatre building after the serious fire in 1961. Opened in 1891 as the Hippodrome Circus. Later known as the Eden Theatre, it became the Grand in 1904. Then it alternated between films and live theatre until it finally closed in 1955. The building spent its last few years as a furniture factory and was demolished following the fire.
