General notes

The row on Garden St houses shops, a cafe and the entrance to St George's emporium. This building was formerly the public hall and subsequently became a cinema.

"In 1906 the Public Hall was taken over by Thomas Bannister and renamed the Public Hall Picturedrome. It was resold in 1921 and in 1925 bought by the Blackpool Tower Company and became the Palace Cinema and Restaurant. It continued as a cinema until 1959 when it was sold to Lytham St Annes Freemasons. The lower storey is now the St Anne's Market and St George's emporium."
