Odeon Bromborough


Film  For Crime 101.  Part of the Croft Retail Park, this is some way from actual Bromborough which made it a tricky cinema for visit, necessitating a long walk from Bromborough Rake Station.  This was mostly along a street called Mark Rake (translated from Old English as "boundary path") and there are several people in the world for whom that is their name, including this surgeon who was interviewed for the Royal College of Surgeons' oral history projectOriginally opened in 1991 as an eleven-screen multiplex, Odeon Bromborough was remodelled in 2019, with the number of screens reduced to seven. Perhaps this was to make way for some of the restaurants in the same block, including the Popeyes next door. No complaints about the film viewing: the large screen was not too close to the front row, although the speakers rattled a lot during the louder bits.
