Now I know my wife is always telling me I go around with my eyes shut and I must have passed the location a good few times, but it wasn't until last Sunday when I was taking a few more photographs that I realised the old ABC Tower Cinema wasn't there anymore! Can anyone tell me when it was demolished?
Thanks. | |

Oh blimey! I am out of touch. Never heard of 'drive through chemists' before. What do they do, pelt your car with aspirin as you drive past? :-) | |

Quote from the blackcountrybugle "the Tower closed on Saturday 28th December 1968, afterwards becoming a Bingo & Social Club, with demolition following some years later." | |
