Scotland Road/Wilbraham Street: A FOR SALE sign has appeared on this former Cinema, recently. It states it comes with planning permission for apartments (there was a planning notice a couple of months ago).

Cinema plans may be vetoed

Feb 6 2008 by Nick Coligan, Liverpool Echo

PLANS to demolish Liverpool’s oldest cinema could be turned down.

Councillors yesterday said they were considering refusing the controversial scheme for Bedford Hall in Walton.

The building opened in 1909 as the city’s first purpose-built picture house.

Its current owner now wants to demolish it and build 26 houses and flats.

Planners had asked that the frontage of the building on Bedford Road be incorporated into the new development.

But the owner turned down their request.

The proposal may now be rejected on the grounds it would cause the loss of “a local amenity of great historic interest”.

Marky, thanks for that, i'm keeping an eye open for Philip as he'd like a photo without the cladding.

Kev, as Philip has already pointed out though, the owners have gone and smashed the decorative mouldings for spite in case they enhanced it's position of becoming listed/saved.

Brilliant picture!
I'm sure Philip will be really pleased you're aboard the Yo ship!

Here are some pictures of the Majestic, Daulby Street, during it's demolition in 1970. Sorry that the exterior shot is over exposed.
Photos; exterior, projection room, balcony. Two more pics, but over the file limit!

Great these Sirob, i'd never seen a colour photo before of what was there before the Royal hospital.
