Morecambe, The Tower From Central Promenade c.1950
Photo ref:

More about this scene
The buildings beneath the tower were completed at the turn of the 20th century. Just like Blackpool today, our tower building contained a theatre (later a cinema), a ballroom and gardens. When the tower itself came down in about 1912, the tower building continued to be a centre for entertainment. About this time it was renamed the Gaumont and became a cinema, but it closed in 1959. It then became a ten pin bowling alley through the 'swinging sixties', and then a bingo hall.
