01 Salford Ambassador 3

Ambassador Theatre, Salford, the rear wall of the stage and the dressing room block. The Ambassador Cinema Salford. Designed by John Knight and opened in 1928, equipped with a stage, dressing rooms and a Jardine organ. It closed in 1964 and was immediately converted to bingo. It was grade 2 listed, the official listing description including "The interior is well preserved. Foyer has marble staircase with metal balustrade on fluted posts and timber handrail, and windows with decorative coloured glass. Auditorium with narrow balcony to rear, has coffered ceiling and a fluted frieze matching that on the exterior. Segmental-arched proscenium flanked by decorated grilles, the pattern of Venetian windows, between Ionic pilasters. The side walls are decorated with stepped panels under shell moulded plaster hoods - both of these are mouldings inspired by the 1925 Exposition des Arts Decoratifs." However it was delisted and demolished in 2004.
