Detail of the facade of the former Magnet Cinema at 53 Newfoundland Circus (BS2). The premises – now occupied by building, refurbishment and fit out specialists C W Duke – were designed by Holbrow & Oaten. They opened for their first screenings in 1914. The cinema had something over 400 seats and operated until 1937.

Although the current top storey is a later addition to the original structure, the main facade has remained remarkably unchanged, despite the different uses to which the building has been put since its cinematic heyday.
