Description: Building on left was The Hippodrome Cinema run by the Minney family, burned down during the war, on the right The Palace Cinema, later a billiard hall kept by Edgar Slater and then used by Kennings as a showroom. Regretfully this is a poor quality printed copy of a postcard and might not reproduce very well.
John Minney, who died in 1953, ran the cinema. (Information very kindly supplied by John Minney, son of William and Grandson of John).
