Full digital projection with new super high quality screen image and a greatly enhanced sound experience! The History of Lynton Cinema

Lynton's first cinema, the “Picturedrome”, opened in the Foresters' Hal

l in 1916 and showed silent movies until 1930. With the advent of talking pictures the location of the cinema moved to the forer Congregational Church and became known as the “B.B. When the owner Major Blackhurst died in 1961, the cinema closed and the property sold off for £2950. Thereafter films were screened for many years on a part-time basis at Lynton Town Hall. This was far from ideal and it was felt that the only way forward, would be to have a seven-day a week operation showing up to date films in its own premises. In 1999 the Methodist Chapel in Lee Road closed and was purchased by North Devon Council. They offered part of the grade 2 listed building as a venue for a new cinema. Money was raised through obtaining various grants and the sponsoring of seats and equipment. After months of hard work, by dedicated groups of people, the Lynton Cinema finally opened its doors on Friday 1st June 2001 with the film Bridget Jones Diary. This intimate new cinema has a seating capacity of just fewer than 100 patrons, creating a unique atmosphere. All the latest films will be screened approximately two weeks after their first release date. Fully equipped with Dolby stereo surround sound, modern 35mm projection equipment and comfortable seating with more than ample legroom, Lynton's new cinema is a huge achievement to all those involved and definitely well worth visiting.
