Some new images of the now lost Empress Cinema in Ashton have been published on the Preston Digital Archive. They were uploaded by the Preston Reunited Facebook group.These show the building in its last days, when it was converted into a bingo hall. That was a fate reserved for many ex-cinemas. The faded glory of the cinema sign can still be seen below. The building was also used as a roller skating rink, for a time.
One Reeler films were shown, and these ran for about 10 minutes or the length of one reel of film. The record would have played for that amount of time. Bigger cinemas had two projectors so that longer films could be shown. This involved changing the reel on the first projector while the second projector took over.
