Comments

Smith extended and altered the existing building to create a picture theatre (used until 1960). The interior was converted to a library in 1993 with due care taken to preserve the remaining features which can still be viewed. The pre-1929 proscenium designed by Wright and Reed is visible behind the Smith additions.

Architect NameSmith, Christopher (Chris) Arthur
