The National Picture Theatre on Beverley Road was a cinema which was built in 1914. During World War two the cinema was bombed and mostly destroyed when an air raid took place on the night of 18 March 1941.
A film had been showing at the time of the bombing, which was Charlie Chaplin's 'The Great dictator'. All 150 people in the cinema at the time escaped and there were no casualties. The interior of the building was completely destroyed but the facade somehow escaped the blast.
It still remains to this day alongside fragments of the foyer and vestibule behind it. The cinema is the last remaining civilian bomb ruin still in existence and was Grade 2 listed in January 2007.
