Jaguar Land Rover buys up cinema next to Castle Bromwich plant

Jaguar Land Rover has bought a cinema next to its Castle Bromwich Jaguar plant as it gears up to increase production.

Initially the site will be used for additional car parking – the factory has taken on around 1,100 staff in the last year – but it will give the company room to expand in the next few years.

The 20-year-old Showcase Cinema closed suddenly last week after JLR made an offer to owners National Amusements.
