South Mimms was one of the ancient parishes of Middlesex. In 1894 it was split, with a small part becoming South Mimms Urban parish, which became part of Barnet Urban District in Hertfordshire, England. The remainder of the parish was administered as the South Mimms Rural District in Middlesex, which only had one constituent parish, being South Mimms. In 1934 the South Mimms Rural District was abolished and replaced by the Potters Bar Urban District in Middlesex, which still only had the one constituent parish of South Mimms. Potters Bar was the name of the town which had developed around the railway station and along the Great North Road, which was by this time significantly larger than South Mimms village. When Greater London was created in 1965, Potters Bar Urban District was one of the few parts of Middlesex not to be incorporated into London. It was instead transferred to Hertfordshire.
South Mimms is a village and civil parish in the Hertsmere district of Hertfordshire in the East of England. It is a small settlement located near to the junction of the M25 motorway with the A1(M) motorway and is perhaps more widely known because of the naming of the service station at that junction.
