The Chiltern Cinema, Beaconsfield

The Chiltern Cinema is a former cinema in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, England was designed by renowned cinema architect W.F. Granger, and opened in late 1927. Originally the cinema was called "the picture house". The seating was around 500, and the auditorium had no balcony. The screen was always 4:3 format (not widescreen), so letterbox vision was complusary on some films. The exterior was of a neo-classical architecture, so consequently, did not look like the average cinema from the front.
