Hadley Common was once part of a great expanse of land known as Enfield ChaseExternal link.  This was a favourite place of the TudorExternal link monarchs for hunting. Local people, including the inhabitants of Hadley, were allowed to keep sheep and cows on the land, as well as take some firewood. After the English Civil WarExternal link some of the common was sold so that houses could be built. Mount House had been built by 1754 (since 1947 it has been St Martha's Convent School).
