The story of Wotton's cinema starts in 1911 when a Mr and Mrs William Coe purchased the de-licensed Crown Inn. Situated on the edge of the Stony Chipping at the end of Market Street opposite the Star Inn, the building was reputed to contain cellars dating back to the Cromwellian period. In 1913 Mr and Mrs Coe opened the Electric Picture House in what was the upstairs Banqueting Room of the old Inn. The venture proved a popular attraction and by 1920 the room was no longer large enough to meet the demand for seats. Old stables were therefore demolished and a new auditorium was constructed. This larger cinema was opened in 1921; it seated 220 customers and the floor was inclined to give a good view of the screen. The seating was made up of mainly plush seats but there were wooden chairs at the front of the theatre for children. These seats were segregated with boys on the left and girls on the right
