Description: | This image shows pillars on either side of the doors at either end plus décor along the top of the walls. The pillars only appear on one side of the doors on the main wall opposite the front windows and the décor immediately above the door only appears above the doors in the end walls.
The escape doors are built out to form a lobby with push-bar operation. There is a frieze with ribbon and bar decoration at high level and the dado rail and skirting are also carried around. A ventilation unit is visible above the exit sign. On either side of the exit lobby are the main wall pilasters with a floral and straight bar decoration.
The Adelphi Cinema opened on 17 February 1930 and closed on 21 January 1973. In May 1974 the owners, the Granada Company, converted the cinema into a bingo hall. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Rights holder: | Slough Library | Subjects: | Bingo Halls ; Cinemas Adelphi Cinema ; Gala Bingo Hall | Temporal: | start=2000-01-01; end=2007-01-01; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Creator: | Jacky Burns | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
