Comments This article is important to the Athenaeum Hall because it is a listing of the history of the Hall and what it was like before the modernization of the hall itself. The article lists some key facts about the original Hall “The biobox was constructed above the original entrance” (Seccombe R), the article also shows how the Hall has changed through upgrades and renovations and highlights the fact that whilst the Hall still stands it has not been used as a regular cinema since the late 1950’s, highlighting the fact that this venue has been used for other aspects for years and reinforcing the idea that the Athenaeum Hall was not just a cinema but a community complex.
