Roxy, Sowerby Bridge - a photo on Flickriver

Originally named the Electric Theatre, the cinema opened on 25 November 1915. From March 1928, the cinema was owned by Gaumont British Theatres and on 11th March 1951 it was then taken over by an independent operator. By May 1952, ownership had moved to Star Cinemas and renamed Roxy Cinema. It finally closed as a cinema in February 1963. After lying vacant for nine years it was converted into a bingo club in the former circle area with a cafe in the main foyer and rear stalls area. In 2010 it was converted into a bar and nightclub.
