The Kinima in the Woods
Brilliant little old time picture house tucked away in the woods at Woodhall Spa, they still have an organist pop up through the stage floor during intermission and play tunes (not sure if they do this for all films or just some, so probably best to ring them and ask) well worth a visit.
