Beamish by Andrew Stopford

The Grand cinema, in Beamish’s 1950s Town, gives people a chance to experience a trip to the pictures during this “golden age” of cinema.

The cinema, from Ryhope, in Sunderland, has been recreated and brought to life, screening films, period newsreels and adverts.

The Grand was hugely popular in its heyday in the 1950s, often selling out its seats.

The main auditorium includes a stage, screen, pit benches and the more expensive upholstered seats. Visitors are able to take a look behind the scenes at the projection room and learn about the skilled role of the projectionist.

The Grand originally closed in the 1960s and later became a bingo hall. It was donated to the museum by Angela and Gary Hepple.

In 2020, The Grand was dismantled and any re-usable parts brought to Beamish to be incorporated into The 1950s Town cinema. Smaller items had already been removed from the building such as bits of paperwork and some unique finds such as a golden syrup tin that had been fashioned into a light shade in the 1930s or 40s. The cinema had a full paint survey carried out so we know exactly what colours the interior had been painted at every stage of its long and colourful history.

The building underwent a full architectural survey to assess which materials were suitable for salvage and re-use and to record any that could not be saved. The moulded plasterwork in the main auditorium could not be collected because it would have crumbled upon removal. Instead the mouldings have been recorded and copies were sourced for the cinema at Beamish.

The two huge stained glass windows that were positioned either side of the cinema screen were carefully removed and have been incorporated into the rebuild. The cinema building was not new in the 1950s, it first opened in 1913 and the rebuild will reflect this.

From the front of the building, the stays used to hold up the canopy and the Western Electric Sound lettering have also been preserved. Western Electric Sound was one of the two best cinema sound systems around at the time so it was a feature well worth advertising. As much original material have been incorporated in to the rebuild as possible.

Cinema seats have been donated to the museum from the former Palladium Cinema in Claypath, Durham. Beamish also collected a pair of projectors from Durham University.

Beamish buffs and film fanatics alike can sponsor an individual seat within the main auditorium of our recreation of The Grand, supporting the museum.
