Just down the road from where I live is this Art Deco cinema where mainly locals go. Watching films and sitting in this old theatre really adds another level to the experience.

Great cosy place for anyone in need of cakes and pampering!

One or two screenings a day, a few days a week; less is more at Close Up. The library is a great resource too, for work or pleasure.

The best Sunday walks.

The AA is Britain's oldest school of architecture, but anyone can take advangte of the great work going on there. You can catch really interesting public lectures and free exhibitions throughout the year. There are also occasional installations and event launches, a bijoux cafe and brilliant bookshop. A great place to hang out with the builders of the future.
