In our photo the plaque can be seen to the right of the main entrance, above the woman's head.

The plaque is laid into a small aperture in the wall shaped like a fanlight, but there is no door or window below, and the spacing is such that we can't think there ever was. and shows this fanlight filled with a grill, out of which protrudes an ugly pipe, still in place in 2016, after which the renovation works began. These images support the decision to carry out the works but don't help to explain the origins of the  fanlight. has some early, undated, images of the theatre frontage and in one of them (admittedly only a drawing) the fanlight is clearly absent.
