Does anyone know the whereabouts of Starlight Studio which was situated in Scarborough? I have a photo taken there around 1925. It shows my grandparents and my mum's a little girl and was taken on an outing from Sheffield.I wondered where in Scarborough Starlight Studio was. Any help much appreciated!

I've found an address for Starlight Studios at Futurist Buildings, Foreshore, Scarborough, which is the same building as this theatre.

Many thanks for all the replies. Now I know Starlight Studio was on the Foreshore it would seem that they popped in for a photo whilst walking on the front during a day trip to Scarborough.

Where would I look for a picture of the Futurist showing the studio about 90 years ago? 

Once again,many thanks.

My first thought would be to Google, Old images of Scarborough and see what comes up.
