A CENTURY OF CINEMA IN THE PINES

The historic Screen One auditorium at The Kinema in the Woods

ONE OF BRITAIN’S MOST DISTINCTIVE CINEMAS

The building began life as a late-Victorian sports and entertainment pavilion. It was converted into a cinema and opened on 11 September 1922, beginning a remarkable story that continues as a privately owned family business.

Screen One is believed to be the UK’s only full-time cinema still using rear projection. The Kinema has grown to four auditoriums while retaining its warm, nostalgic character and the much-loved Compton Kinestra organ installed in 1987.

THE FULL KINEMA EXPERIENCE

Retro décor, memorabilia, confectionery and the possibility of interval organ music make a visit feel far more special than an ordinary multiplex trip.
