"Weekly screenings were conducted there in the early thirties by a local man, Lionel Alexander, screening on the same night and in competition with the Atkinsons at the Londesborough. While it was used as a picture theatre, it was called the Empire Theatre, and on other nights the hall was used for dances and concerts. In about 1938, Joe Rourke took over these screenings, and continued here till about 1942, when he transferred to the Londesborough: the Denmark Hall then became a dormitory for the students at the Agricultural College."
