Town Hall / Glen, CullenPhoto courtesy of Harry Rigby.

The

Town Hall in Cullen (Banffshire) operated as a cinema during WW2 if not

during the 30s as well. During one of these performances in 1942 the

projection box caught fire (acetylene + nitrate film?) and the place

was severelly damaged by the enxuing blaze. It was rebuilt in the 1950s

much as before but with a lower ceiling and (wow!) electric light! This

building still has a projection box it is not known if any equipment

remains.
