Grand Theatre Hotel Plymouth 4K EXCLUSIVE

I believe we have another exclusive here of the inside of the abandoned crumbling Grand Theatre Hotel which was being turned into flats before the water started getting in and wrecked everything. It looks like there may have been floor collapses.We thougth because of the name outside on the the front of the building which says "Grand Theatre" that this was the Theatre. However we found out that the theatre was next door and was demolished in 1967 and this was a hotel which took the name of the theatre.


Text from newspapers:
The Grand Theatre pub (number 162) is derelict and boarded up. The once beautiful carved cornices are a reminder of the Grand Theatre, which stood next door (now David Southgate Court).

Back in the 1800s, before the railway came to Millbay bringing with it warehouses and dockers, the Grand Theatre was the haunt of the city’s bourgeoisie.

After the Second World War, when the street became famous around the world as a sailors’ playground, few would have chosen to live in the area.

But between 1995 and 2003 £15million of regeneration money was used to build the council flats at Devonshire House and Edgcumbe House in a bid to get more people living in the area and revitalise a shabbier-by-the-day road.

Some buildings got left behind.
