Description
"The foundations of ‘Jesmond Picture House’ were laid in 1919 and the building was formally opened in May 1921. The one screen building holds many happy memories for Jesmond residents, particularly those who recall special Saturday matinees for children.

In 1991 this was the oldest functioning cinema in Newcastle...." -
