It was a cinema, I remember my first film I watched there was Dracula prince of darkness starring Christopher Lee in around 1967. I used to go drinking in the Talbot when I was a young man. Great vid brought back memories

The door to the tunnels under Stourbridge ring road to the college is still there. You can find it next to the River Stour by the KFC. There are also some quite good tunnels in the cellar of the Talbot Hotel.

I’m returning to The Black Country having lived in Canada for 13 years. Thanks for the videos you make and for giving me lots of ideas for places to explore that are not too far to travel . We are lucky that we can live in England, such an interesting and beautiful country 😊

Hi, Canada is becoming an increasing difficult country to live in and it doesn’t take care of less fortunate people like the UK does. Too much drug use here and homelessness, very high taxes too. I want to camp and explore the outdoors again without worrying about bears, I want to explore castles, walk along coastal paths, live amongst people who are friendly and have a sense of humour again😊 You don’t realize what a great country we have until you are not there.

The bit behind the glass is lath & plaster. The laths are the wood and they would fill with lime plaster to make a smooth finish. The modern version is plasterboard. My house has lath and plastee in places. Nice hotel, much more posh than a Travelodge lol.

It was a cinema up till 1982 called the ABC. Its previous name (the one you could barely see at the top) was the Scala. I watched several films there as a child & it was awesome, shame they closed it down.
