New Coronation Cinema, High Road, New SouthgateThe cinema opened in 1930, and was a popular venue until it closed in 1952. This is the only photo I have of the cinema building, taken just before demolition in 1970. If anyone has a better one, or any taken when it was open, I would be pleased to see them.
