Carlton Cinema, 1931
Carlton Cinema stood in Green Street. It was built in 1927 on the site of the old St-George's-in-the-East industrial school and was built in an exotic "Egyptian" style using decorative tiles. It stood until the 1980s, when it was demolished. For a time it was called the ABC Cinema. The rear of the site is now a car park although there are still shops along the Green Street frontage.
