GinTreeS7 18 #1 Posted June 2, 2019 So excited by the future plans for this building. https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/abbeydalepicturehouse I hope they achieve their goals. What does everyone else think? It should be a cultural amenity for the community and hopefully not just another Weatherspoons 🙆♂️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Chez2 10 #3 Posted June 2, 2019 We went to an event there last year. We went to the matinee rather than the evening. It was a nightmare to find parking. Public transport is out of the question where we live and a taxi there and back would be really expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Well there wasn't any spaces when we got there, we drove round and round. My husband can squeeze in the smallest of parking spaces but there weren't any. We were fairly early for the event too. We ended up parking down the side road in a car park but when we came out we weren't sure if we should have parked there. I think the car park we parked in was for something else.

I also think it's wonderful. What a marvellous old building and what a great idea to make it a community hub once again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
