I took this pic of Ripley Hippodrome on a visit there two or three weeks ago.
Some say it`s an original 1913 building, others say it`s actually a 1920 building that incorporates parts of a building dating from 1913. Still others say it has too much of a plain brick appearance to be really distinctive.
I have no idea how old it is but I do know I like it. I gather it was under threat of demolition a couple of years ago but has since been reprieved.
Unfortunately, it`s been standing empty for a while and it`s future must be uncertain.
