About Potters Bar

Potters Bar is a town in Hertfordshire, England, just north of London. (It was in Middlesex until 1965.) It has a population of about 22,000. The town started life in the early 13th century and remained more or less unchanged until the arrival of the railway in the 1850s. The origin of the Potters component of the town's name is uncertain but is generally thought to have been derived from evidence of a Roman pottery that was thought to have been sited locally, or from the family Pottere who lived in the South Mimms parish. The Bar component is thought to refer to the gates leading from the South Mimms parish and into the Enfield Chase parish, or possibly from some sort of toll on the Great North Road. The original "Bar" is said to have been at what is now the Green Man pub, or at the current entrance to Movern House. The Great North Road, the original main road route from London to the north of England and ending at Edinburgh in Scotland, passed through Potters Bar High Street - originally numbered as the A1, later the A1000. The A1 was built as a major (what was then called "arterial") road, and a crossroads at Bignells Corner linked the Barnet - St Albans Road with the A1. Potters Bar is now also served by junction 24 of the M25. Potters Bar was created an urban district of Middlesex in 1934. In 1965 the district was transferred to Hertfordshire while most of the rest of Middlesex became part of Greater London. In 1974 the urban district was abolished and the area became part of the borough of Hertsmere. The area was part of the Metropolitan Police Area until the creation of the Greater London Assembly, after which it came under the Hertfordshire police force.
