Win Some - Lose Some
Stafford is another interesting town - in truth we find very few towns in England uninteresting.
If you stray off the tourist trail there are some little gems around.



The Sandonia Theatre was built in 1920 in Sandon Road. It was never very successful either as a theatre or cinema and when it closed in the 1960s is became a bingo hall and later a snooker hall. It is once again up for sale and may not survive this time.
































The Picture House, on the other hand, has found a new life as aJD Wetherspoon pub.












Much of the fabric and décor has been preserved









In some detail, too.
