  • Description
    Colour photograph showing the auditorium of a bingo club, formerly the Hippodrome, in Bishop Auckland. Taken from the balcony looking towards stage left, it centres on a small box at balcony level stage left. To the right of the box the balcony slips are visible, and to the left the proscenium and house tabs can be seen. However, the stage seems to have been removed and instead another bingo area is visible where the stage would have been. The proscenium and tabs are consequently cut off halfway down to accommodate this.
