Summary
Alton Picture House opened on 18th December 1912. It had a semi-circular brick façade which was faced in Bath Stone. The proscenium was described as being ‘highly ornamental and in a very attractive design’. It was closed in 1937 and re-designed by Portsmouth based architect Bates White. Plans had been drawn by architect Robin A. Thomas in an Art Deco style. It re-opened on 18th June 1937. A balcony had been added which increased the seating capacity. The Palace Cinema closed as a cinema on 28th November 1984 and the building then began use as a bingo club, ballroom & disco with some wrestling matches too, plus occasional films at holiday times.
