Old 'Rex' cinema, 101 Brixton Hill
The unusual frontage of this (now disused) Tarpaulin and Tent Manufacturing Company reveals that the building was originally constructed as the Rex Cinema, opened in 1911.

Between 1910 and 1915, at least 9 cinemas opened in the Brixton area (some of them in railway arches).

Now the Ritzy is the sole surviving cinema in Brixton - and happily, it's doing good business!
