Description

Durante la dominazione sassone, era conosciuta con il nome di Hetfelle, ma non più tardi del 970, anno in cui re Edgar fece dono di 5.000 acri al monastero di Ely, era già nota come Haethfeld. Hatfield è menzionata nel Domesday Book come proprietà dell'Abbazia di Ely. La città fu poi chiamata Hatfield del vescovo. Nella cittadina vi è la Hatfield House, residenza della famiglia Cecil, marchesi di Salisbury.
Elisabetta Tudor vi fu confinata per tre anni in quello che oggi è conosciuto come "The Old Palace" a Hatfield Park. La leggenda narra che fu qui, nel 1558, mentre era seduta sotto un albero di quercia nel Parco, che apprese la notizia della morte della sua sorellastra, la regina Maria I. Elisabetta tenne il suo primo Consiglio nella Great Hall di Hatfield.
