Next time, Mandy.
I know it's called Spellow Lane, but am I right to call that area Walton?
Again, this one's from the 'wider area' - one of my favourite cinemas.
Opened in October 1932 in Stockport's Mersey Square, the Plaza is probably one of the best examples of a super cinema surviving today.
Not only is the Plaza still standing, it remains largely unaltered and is still used for its intended purpose.

Still in the wider area.
The Casino at Blackpool's South Shore.
It still looks very new, but was built in 1938.
The New Dock, Tyrer Street, Birkenhead (known as the blood tub)
There have been photos posted of this building before, but I thought I'd add a couple I took this lunch time.
I think The Palace in New Brighton is one of the best examples of Art Deco in the country.
This is one of my favourite buildings around, I've taken loads of photos of it. i pass it every day as I go to work, yet I've never been able to find any information about it.
I've only ever seen one or two photos of it on the internet. I'd love to find out who the architect was and when it was built.
It was, I believe, during WWII used to store/manufacture some sort of arms (in the basement - and there's still access, although I would imagine it's a restricted area).
