The Second Golden Hill Manor (the original was pulled down around 1820) sat beside Goldings Hill. Until September 1940 when a Land Mine drifted down over Loughton, Anti Aircraft gunners operating Bofurs guns mounted on the back of a lorry in the High Road shot at it in an attempt to explode it in mid air.
All that actually happened was the blast from their gun blew in the doors of the cinema! The mine floated down and exploded on the roof of Goldings Manor. In 1948 the estate was sold for housing.
