The Brixtora Ballroom Club (great name for a Brixton band if anyone's looking for one) was a dance hall at 205 Stockwell Road in the 1950s, next to the Astoria cinema - see advert at Transpontine (http://transpont.blogspot.com/2007/10/south-london-nights-out-dancing-1954.html). What's there now?

OK, I think that's more or less next to the Academy - was that originally the Astoria cinema (probably been answered here before sometime).

By the way I mis-spelt in previous post, it was the Brixtoria not the Brixtora.
