Former Grand Theatre, Cockermouth


The Grand Theatre on Station Road in Cockermouth opened in 1915. It was primarily used as a cinema, until it's closure in 1966. It was then used as a bingo hall for many years, and later as a vets and a lighting shop. The building was purchased by new owners in 2015 and the facade of the theatre has been restored.
