SIR – The Glenroyal Cinema was, indeed, iconic and it is ironic that the police response did not allow, immediately at the bottom of Carr Lane, a right turn down Dockfield giving access to Saltaire Road via the roundabout in Otley Road and Salt’s Mill Road.

The former bingo hall had been the first purpose-built cinema in Shipley, perhaps the whole region. Its telephone number was Shipley 1 when we had a telephone exchange in Shipley.
