Town Hall Cinema

| The
Town Hall in Cullen (Banffshire) operated as a cinema during WW2 if not
during the 30s as well. During one of these performances in 1942 the
projection box caught fire (acetylene + nitrate film?) and the place
was severelly damaged by the enxuing blaze. It was rebuilt in the 1950s
much as before but with a lower ceiling and (wow!) electric light! This
building still has a projection box it is not known if any equipment
remains. |
