May have been a Gaumont there too, but definitely one on Park Rd. East.

Just a bit of extra info ..

When they were knocking it down or preparing to, they found several shrunken heads in the loft voids. They belonged to the old caretaker who had travelled africa and took souvineers.
Weird !

Why are developers obsessed with painting the outsides of building that horrible mustardy yellow? Its on the YMCA, and also St James Centre (pathetic excuse for a library - where are all the bleedin' books?), and of course the Learning Curve part of Birkenhead 6th Form College. Do you think there was a surplus of that colour someone had mixed at B&Q and decided they didn't like it, so the council bought it cheap?
