Hurley Robinson

Archibald Hurley Robinson FRIBA (14 June 1883[1] – 24 February 1953)[2] was a prolific English architect of cinemas prior to the Second World War.

[6] A pre-World War II work by Robinson was the Lee Longlands furniture store on Broad Street, Birmingham.

[7] Another example of a pre-World War II work by Hurley Robinson is the Kent Street Baths in Birmingham which was built between 1931 and 1933.

[8] Following World War II, the cinema business deteriorated and Robinson's work was less concentrated on this aspect of construction.

In 1959, Robinson was commissioned to design an extension to a factory used by Rootes Motor Parts Limited on the Coventry Road in Birmingham.
