Hi Clarky Just found a little info about the place, Central Drive Grade 2 - Listed 20.10.1983 Recently in use as a bingo hall, the “Central Picture Theatre” was built in 1913, possibly one of the first purpose-built cinemas in Lancashire. The symmetrical façade in Accrington brick features stone-coloured dressings, two bullseye windows, drum and ball finial and a red/white chequered gable bearing patterns in moulded terracotta. The small foyer leads to a balconied auditorium with decorative mouldings to cornice, ceiling braces and seat ends. Exterior restored and interior much altered in conversion to “Village Pizzeria” in Spring 1986. Now stands vacant and with door and windows boarded over.
God help that poor boy he broke my heart at 20:05 I hope anyone connected to the local authorities who see this will be able to help him because he’s just a lad who needs to be safe and he’s not safe wondering around abandoned buildings a alone no light. See how sweet he was? Politely introducing himself and shaking your hand? Please someone in black pool look out for him and make sure he gets the help he needs ❤❤❤❤❤
When I first moved to Blackpool in 1990 it was open as a nightclub, it's was a picture house originally then a nightclub then a bingo hall and finally a play centre for kids parties and such , it's grade 2 listed along with the former engine man's railway barracks to the right ( Blackpool's large Central Railway station once stood behind which covered coral island as well ) and both were supposed to be incorporated into a huge leisure/ fairground area on the former station site , but it dropped through as the developers have gone into receivership so it's just left , great video by the way I haven't been in there for 25 years .
Cracking mate as always, love the history of it . Reminds me of watching the old hammer house horrors, I was just having that very thought when that dude walked in , Jesus, you're arse must have tightened up😂great work Clarky 👍
Nice one Clarky, love the reverse images at the start, sets the mood for creepiness! Nice work. If in doubt get out, you did right leaving, just never know!
Nice one brother I just didn't trust the guy man no disrespect to him but when you know you know man and yeah I was editing it and that coral island shot just looked better backwards so I did the entire thing that way because Blackpool is backwards man lol. To be honest it's an absolute shit hole these days.
Hey, clarky on guard for a battle on this one - and yeah you never know who is about. And who happened to show up? Dwain a pretty cool fella. Re - the design you might be right. I think maybe the club or former bingo may have added some floors. Loved the old ceiling - could still see that. A creepy one but enjoyable. Nice one bro. Mark
Thanks Clarky, that was brilliant mate but I think that your new friend has super powers or something as he can see in the dark, either lots of carrots or 'charlie'. Have a great weekend. Take care and all the best. Stevie
Pmfsl no question off his box son. Il be honest I think that was his digs and he was just questioning us to see where we'd been ya know? He was deffo living there man!
Thats a deffo spooky place in the dark, felt like eyes were watching you as you were walking round with ya torch haha, lovely old building though, mint vid
Im in lancaster theres a old building from 1887 near me must be abandoned no owernship signs up etc i think it was a old forge and barracks once only accesible from a front window if interested does have danger signs up thpugh
Thanks for agreeing mate. It was the stuff he was waffling about off cam that put me off man and he kept going to his pockets so I weren't to keen on sticking around. I wasn't scared of him but you just never know do you I mean who the f@ck wanders I to there on there own. I think he was scoping us out possibly had a stash in there or something
Shiit! i was crapping myself for ya in this one!! Lmao! Especially when that guy came outta the dark! He didnt even have a torch ffs! Another blinder from you Clarky, thx. Btw did you look at anywhere else in Blackpool ? its got a shit ton of buildings that are vacant or derelict. xx
Why doesn’t anyone with these kind of platforms highlight just how filthy this country really is, it’s like living in a ginormous open air skip and it’s never commented on, WHY, has everyone excepted this way of life, it’s a disgusting mess that should be addressed and acted upon, who the hell would want to come here from abroad it looks like the economy has died and a third world country has emerged, im 65 and shocked why people these days just don’t give a flying F**k about how they live their lives, don’t understand it all I can do is shake my head in disbelief.
