Abstract: A great deal has been written about the beginnings of motion pictures; their origins as scientific toys and their development from peep-show machines on seaside piers and fairgrounds to the plushy cinemas of today (Fig. 1). I do not propose to reopen the heated discussions on the relative contributions made by Eastman, Edison, Friese-Green, Lumière, Paul or others (mentioned here in alphabetical order) to the invention of kinematography. Let us deal instead with some of the subsequent developments, including the continuous improvements in the fittings and fixtures of the “sheds” where the motion-picture pioneers in Britain made their films—up to the huge and complex studio plants of today.
