The screen was at the entrance end of the building. Part of Portsmouth Town Cinemas, it was acquired by Shipman and King in the 1960's along with the rest of the circuit.

Ah! the palace cinema.
As a 6/7 yo kid I used to scrounge the 5d (five old pennies) = 2p admission charge and settle down in the stalls and watch the complete 2 film programme through twice(or more) as it was then a continuous performance.
