Premier Cinema
485 Hertford Road, Enfield Wash
Located to the east of Enfield at Enfield Wash, the Premier Cinema was on the north-east corner of Eastfield Road and Hertford Road. Built by Mr W. Grenfell, a local builder, the Premier Cinema opened on 17th January 1921 with "Wolves of the Night" starring William Farnum.
By 1932, it was being operated by Ben Jay, who also operated the Corner Cinema, South Tottenham. In 1938, it was taken over by Davies Cinemas Ltd.
The Premier Cinema was closed on 19th April 1961 with Paul Newman in "The Left Handed Gun" and Burl Ives in "Wind Across the Everglades". It was converted into a bingo club, and this was eventually closed in 1985. The building was quickly demolished and housing was built on the site. '
