The building started its life as the Grand theatre at the turn of the 20th century.. In 1908 it became the Woolwich Hippodrome.. The ABC cinema group took the building in 1935 and demolished it in 1939 to build a new Cinema. However the war prevented the building from being completed until 1955. The cinema closed in 1982 and then saw service as a couple of different night clubs. In 2011 the place once again opened as a community entertainment venue copyright Chris mansfield
