This will be the easiest cinema story, and is just a list of which picture houses were around in Eltham and Woolwich in 1928.
The challenge should you accept it, is dredge up the pictures, with the memories.
And yes I know someone will have written the book, but where would the fun be in going there?
Instead the list is from the Kinematograpgh Year Book for 1928, which lists all the cinema’s in the country, the film companies and much else.*
I have four Year books in the collection, spanning 1914, 1928, 1929 and 1947.
And because I can I shall wander across to Plumstead, and Blackheath, to publish their cinemas, and while I am at it will accept quests for other places.
Remember you saw it first on the blog.

The Eltham Cinema Theatre gives the S. R. station as Shooters Hill. I presume S. R. is Southern Region. I have never known a train station with that name. Was is one of the Eltham stations, I wonder?
ReplyDeleteIt was Eltham Park Railway Station, which opened in 1908 as Shooters Hill and Eltham park which was shortened to Eltham Park in 1927.
