Picture House, Grade II listed cinema building in Stafford, England
The Picture House displays Tudor-style architecture with black and white half-timber beams and a stucco façade on Bridge Street.
The cinema started operations on February 23, 1914, with the screening of The House of Temperley and continued showing films until March 1995.
The building transformed from a cinema into a pub in 1997, while maintaining its original ticket office and decorative plaster ceiling features.
The structure retains its seven-bay segmented barrel-vaulted ceiling and central gable, exemplifying early 20th-century cinema architecture.
A French Reed Organ de Luxe Mustel Celesta Concert organ enhanced silent film screenings after its installation in August 1917.
