Reports on the Facebook group for Silver Wheels Altrincham claim that the Longford Essoldo Cinema building on Chester Road Stretford will be re opening after a 15 year closure as a skating rink early this September.
There is no offical evidence to back this up but who knows … good news if it’s true, now where did those roller skates go…
Longford and Essoldo Cinema Stretford 
What Fantastic News, may it continue to entertain for years to come.
Too many gems like this have gone forever so lets all make it a huge success. Henry Elder would have been proud, lets drink a toast to him on opening night. God Bless you all.
i really hope this is true, would deffo go in to have a look round, can’t see me skating though, bit to old now.
If it’s true, delighted to hear it.
