I remember queing up on Boxing Day there to watch Jaws in 1975 or 76?

Hate to admit it, but I went to the ABC Minors there from about 1965. Can still remember the entire minors song.

I met my Mrs there in 1988. I wish they'd knocked it down in 1987!!

Great building? Hardly a design classic.

WBC have been party to the development options for a good while.

I shouldn't be allowed, regardless of people's opinions of it when it was a nightclub, it is an iconic building to those from the town.

Is it? I'm in my thirties and to me it's nothing but a former nightclub. They can knock it down tomorrow for all I care. I don't see it as iconic in a positive sense, more a beacon for everything that was bad about the town. It was a great day when the nightclub ended and having it redeveloped into something else or left as open ground is fine by me.

What would you rather they did? Left the shell abandoned?

The building has been out of use for 4 years and is not a listed building, which means the owner can demolish and the Council cannot intervene & has no powers whatsoever. I remember going to watch Private Benjamin with my Mum and Dad..

The last 3 films I watched there was Grease, Warlords of Atlantis and Hanger 18.

Apparently Laurel and Hardy performed there when it was a theatre.

All you know everything that was good and bad about Warrington. Thank f*** you don't speak for the majority.

Had some great nights in Smiths, I'll be sorry to see it go.

I think I actually verge upon agreeing with Saddened. The building has no future and it now clears the way for the redevelopment of that part of town, which is desperately needed. The footpath which runs along the river through Crosfields and the park on the other side attracts some really shady characters.

Whist they are in town can the demolition men pay a visit to New Town House, please?

Me too, and sad to say, I also queued for Grease a year or two later......
