Reviving Old Buildings for other Much Needed Purposes(permalink)

Posted by Tumpale Phiri on Wednesday, 16th June 2004 Last updated Tuesday, 22nd June 2004
I live in Westbury Wiltshire and being a young person I find it annoying having to travel miles to Bath for the nearest cinema or Frome both of which are currently out of touch with modern cinema technology, and if I want that I have to go to Cribbs Causeway at Warner Village. There is more selction there as well in Bristol city centre and Brislington but it is far away and one cannot just decide on impulse to go and watch a quick film.
I love the cinema and so do others I know both young and old and it is a shame that we have a centrally located building in the centre of Trowbridge, with good parking allocated for it and accessible by bus, train, cars as well as being within walking distance of many, and it is just being left to rot. Trowbridge is a 10 to 15 minute drive from Westbury. We could have at least three screens in that building but I have no idea what Tesco have in store for it all I know is: " for the past 7 years I have been in this area, the rot has been getting worse and worse."
I hope I can find people who feel the same and help do somehting aboutt his, even if it is not about westbury, it could be about their own areas.
