Gala Bingo in Anchor Road, Aldridge has been sold to Walsall-based Dorchester Land and Corum Property Investments Limited, based in Guernsey.
The building was put up for sale by owners Gala Coral when it closed in August after more than 60 years of bingo at the site.

Players told of their sadness at its demise and 18 people lost their jobs.  Tough economic conditions and the hike in bingo tax in April’s budget was blamed for the closure.

John Phillips from Dorchester Land said: “It has the potential for a number of alternative uses.  We are considering a number of proposals for the site and the intention is to submit a planning application in due course following consultation with the local planning authority and other interested parties.”
The site was one of several branches that the bingo Giant has been forced to close, including Dudley, which also shut in September.  The company said at the time there was an interested buyer but refused to confirm the identity.

The Aldridge club, a listed building, which stands in the centre of the village was formerly the Avion Cinema built in the 1930s.  It is believed it was on the market for more than £1 million.  Bingosupermarket has been unable to confirm the exact fee that was paid.
