Colour photograph showing a part of the façade and roof of the Old Theatre in Chichester. Taken from across the road, it shows the upper storey of a two-storey, red brick building on a corner site where South Street meets Theatre Lane. Two of the three bays are in shot, with the centre bay to the left and slightly advanced, both of which contain a blank square central panel. The wider centre bay also has sash windows, emphasised by a triangular pediment bearing the date 1791, and a brick cornice lines the width of the building with a parapet above concealing in part a pitched tiled roof. Despite being referred to as ‘The Old Theatre’, the building is no longer in use as a working theatre.
