[The Nottingham Post, 18 September 2017, wrote about the disused Galaxy Cinema in Long Eaton: 'The building has had a tumultuous history since it was first opened over 100 years ago, launching in 1908 as St James’ Theatre. In 1910 it was turned into a cinema, known as Vint’s Picturehouse, staying that way throughout the First World War before reverting back to the theatre' (https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/local-news/derelict-long-eaton-cinema-site-493786).]
