The Stafford Cinema:-
This reminds me very much of the cinema in Braintree.
Here’s the side view:-
And that long window:-
There’s a deco terrace of shops just to the right.
This shows the terrace’s relation to the cinema.
The photo below of the cinema is on Trip Advisor.

Not Art Deco this time, but a fine (former?) civic building in Stafford which seems now to be a shopping mall. The glazing is intricate.

This is another shop’s frontage:-
Here’s Marks and Spencer’s (a stitch of two photos):-
Art Deco, or at least 1930s, style shop upper window. The glazing looks original to me. Possibly Critall. Good brickwork too.
A pub/restaurant called Casa. Perhaps modern but has deco style
