The London Borough of Enfield () is a London borough in north London with some districts within the borough straddling north-east London, England. It borders the London Boroughs of Barnet (to the west), Haringey (to the south) and Waltham Forest (to the south-east), the districts of Hertsmere (to the north-west), Welwyn Hatfield and Broxbourne (both to the north) in Hertfordshire, and Epping Forest (to the east) in Essex. The local authority is Enfield Council. ==Etymology== Enfield was recorded in Domesday Book in 1086 as ''Enefelde'', and as ''Einefeld'' in 1214, ''Enfeld'' in 1293, and ''Enfild'' in 1564: that is 'open land of a man called Ēana', or 'where lambs are reared', from the Old English ''feld'' with an Old English personal name or with Old English ''ēan'' 'lamb'. The ''feld'' would have been a reference to an area cleared of trees within woodland later to become Enfield Chase.〔Mills A. D.
