One group that is currently prominent in the village is the South Mimms and Ridge Protection Committee that was established after the threat that the site of an old hospital would be turned into a prison.
Until 1965 South Mimms was located in the northern part of Middlesex, but it moved under the jurisdiction of Hertsmere Borough Council and Hertfordshire County Council in recent years.
South Mimms is now in line for its own parish council, as residents objected to being included with either Ridge or Potters Bar.

However, changes to the original proposals mean that South Mimms is likely to have its own parish council instead of being included as part of Ridge Parish Council.
Ian Dempster, chairman of the South Mimms and Ridge protection committee, said: "We get on very well with Ridge but we realise that they do not want to be swamped by us if we formed a parish council together, as they are a much smaller community.
In the same way, South Mimms does not want to be swamped by the larger community of Potters Bar if we were in the same parish council.

Something fishy is going on at Billingsgate but it might turn out to be a prize catch for South Mimms.
South Mimms, sited close to major motorways, has caught its eye as a possible location and cod, haddock, mackerel and numerous other North Sea fish could soon be flowing through the area on their way to shops and restaurants in London and the South East.
A new South Mimms distribution centre would serve the Home Counties as well as London and process around 400,000 North Sea fish a day -- the equivalent of six huge articulated lorry loads.

South Mimms, home of the legendary M25 service station and it's accompanying traffic jam, seems an unlikely venue for a caving expedition.
Most local people around South Mimms have no idea of the mine's existence, although there are now more than 1,132ft of tunnel known, up to 40ft high and 32ft wide.
It is one of the largest unsupported chalk mines anywhere in the world, representing a volume of chalk and flint exceeding 7,700 cubic metres.

 SABRE - Road Lists - The First 99 - A6
This necessitated the renumbering of the A6 between Barnet and South Mimms (where it crossed the new A1), as this was now in the 1-zone -- the stretch was given the number A1081.
The South Mimms services were built here too, on the original alignment of the A6 St. Albans Road, which now carries local traffic to and from the junction.
The A6 bypassed South Mimms (it was dual carriageway as I recall), but the bit between here and London Colney was upgraded to the M25 in 1986.

The location of the new station just went to show how little thought went into what must have been considered then to be a quiet rural station which would attract few customers from the local community.
It had two platforms and up until around 1872 each platform had to be accessed by separate entrances, it was not until circa 1872 when an overbridge was built that passengers could enter using the one entrance.
An entrance still existed south of the bridge for ticket holders to access the north (down) platform.

 FURZEFIELD HISTORY
Before this time the history of the Manor of South Mimms, which I assume always contains Furzefield, is rather complicated for South Mimms actually moved position and its ownership changed many times.
The site of the first South Mimms is likely to be where the twelfth century South Mimms Castle stood, and its mediƦval replacement, Mimms Hall, stood (about half a mile away from the present day South Mimms).
The Norman conquest in 1066 meant that all lands were transferred from the Anglo-Saxon Ansgar to Geoffrey de Mandeville, a Norman baron.

The railway station opened in August 1850 on what was then the London to Peterborough line passing between the villages of Potters Bar and South Mimms.
This attracted people to live in the area and led to the building of a number of houses at the beginning of the century at the northern end of Darkes Lane.
St Giles Church at South Mimms was built in stages between C.1140 and 1525 and was restored by G.E. Street in 1876-77.

Whether the provision of service area facilities for drivers of heavy goods vehicles at South Mimms and Clacket Lane services on the M25 is adequate.[HL4128]
Although the facilities at South Mimms and Clacket Lane, including the number of lorry parking spaces, meet the requirements which we place on their operators, traffic growth has increased pressure on lorry parking at both service areas.
Proposals exist for further services on the western side of the M25 to help relieve the pressure but finding a site which is acceptable in planning terms has proved difficult.
