Most of it is unparished (i.e. it does not have a civil parish council); part comes under Chorleywood Parish Council. By the time 0f the 2011 Census a new civil parish had been formed called Maple Cross and Mill End. All of Mill End forms part of Three Rivers District and so is administered by Three Rivers District Council and Hertfordshire County Council.[3] HistoryBy 1880, Mill End had church buildings and so had become a village; it was no longer a hamlet. It contained St. Peter's Church (built in 1874-5) and a Baptist chapel. St Peter's was a small flint building with Bath-stone dressings. The village also had a paper mill, tannery, and brewery.[4] Another notable ancient structure at Mill End was a timber-framed farmhouse called Shepherds Farm, mentioned in a 1294 subsidy roll with a reference to Robert Le Schephard. The subsidy roll of 1534 records the name of Robert Lane. The Lane family farmed there until 1773, when Joseph Lane sold the farm to Joseph Swannell. By 1839 the Thelluson trustees had bought it. They built a new farmhouse and used the original farmhouse as lodgings for single men employed on the farm.[5] Tornado Cars used to manufacture kit cars at 90 Uxbridge Rd, Mill End. The company sold the cars either factory finished or in component form (in which case the buyer was responsible for assembling the car from the components). The first model was shown to the press in August 1958 and production of cars stopped in 1964. Tornado Cars won the 750 Motor Clubs' Six Hour Handicap Relay Race at Silverstone twice and, at its peak, employed 60 people. The new Fairway Tyre Services building on the site is called "Tornado House" as a tribute.[6]GovernmentMill End lies within Three Rivers District and is associated with three wards of Three Rivers District Council: Mill End and Maple Cross Ward contains the part of Mill End west of Church Lane/Shepherds Lane and north of the Uxbridge Road. It also contains Heronsgate, Maple Cross, and West Hyde.[7] The district councillors representing the ward (following the 3 May 2012 elections) are Chris Lucas, Ann Shaw OBE, and Peter Wakeling. All are Liberal Democrats.[8]{{rp|7}}{{rp|23}}{{rp|27}}{{rp|28}} Penn Ward contains the part of Mill End east of Church Lane/Shepherds Lane and north of the Uxbridge Road.[7] The district councillors representing the ward (following the 3 May 2012 elections) are Les Mead and Sarah Nelmes. Both are Liberal Democrats.[8]{{rp|7}}{{rp|24}}{{rp|25}} Rickmansworth Ward contains the part of Mill End south of the Uxbridge Road. It also contains central Rickmansworth, Batchworth, Batchworth Heath, and Woodcock Hill.[7] The district councillors representing the ward (following the 3 May 2012 elections) are Paula Hiscocks and David Sansom. Both are Conservatives.[8]{{rp|7}}{{rp|22}}{{rp|26}} The main responsibilities of Three Rivers District Council are:
Three Rivers District lies within the county of Hertfordshire. So Mill End is also administered by Hertfordshire County Council. Three Rivers District lies within Hertfordshire Constabulary's police area. The elected Police and Crime Commissioner for Hertfordshire sets the policing budget, holds the Chief Constable to account, determines local policing priorities, and represents the views of residents.[12] Most of Mill End is unparished, but the part of it north of Oakfield is in Chorleywood Civil Parish.[7] This area forms the parish's Chorleywood Quickwood Ward.[13] The parish councillor representing the ward (following the 27 May 2010 election) is Raj Khiroya, a Liberal Democrat who was the only Chorleywood Parish councillor to be elected unopposed.[14]{{rp|3}}[15] Geography{{Geographic location|width = auto |Centre = Mill End |North = Sarratt and, before it, Chorleywood |Northeast = Loudwater |East = Moneyhill and, beyond it, Rickmansworth |Southeast = Moor Park Northwood |South = Harefield |Southwest = Maple Cross and, beyond it, West Hyde |West = Chalfont Saint Giles |Northwest = Heronsgate }} London is just to the south of Mill End (Mill End borders the London Borough of Hillingdon).[16] Notable peopleHarry Edwin CurtisHarry Edwin Curtis JP (known as H.E. Curtis) was living in Springwell Lodge (276 Uxbridge Road)[17] Mill End when he died on 8 December 1948.[18] He had been a Hertfordshire County Council alderman and a chairman of Rickmansworth Urban District Council "who worked for the good of Mill End for many years and who had taken great interest in the welfare of old people".[19]{{rp|6}} When Springwell Avenue, Mill End was built (in December 1925), Rickmansworth Urban District Council named it after Curtis' home, Springwell Lodge.[19]{{rp|16}} In 1953 the council named Curtis Close (which contained bungalows for old people) in commemoration of Curtis. These road names were kept in 1972 when their pre-fabricated bungalows and houses were demolished and rebuilt.[19]{{rp|6}} === Job Lane === Job Lane (1620–1697) emigrated to America from Shepherds Farm, Mill End, in 1649 (with his brothers James and Edward). He was a carpenter who built bridges and houses in the Boston, Massachusetts area. He also imported goods from England.[20][21] In 1664 Lane became the owner of 1500 acres of land in Billerica in exchange for building a mansion at Norwich, Connecticut for Fitz John Winthrop, the grandson of Governor Winthrop. This land is now one-fifth of Bedford, Massachusetts. Lane also built one of the college buildings in Cambridge, Massachusetts.[22][23] References1. ^ 2. ^Census, 2001 3. ^{{cite web|title=Mill End (Rickmansworth), Hertfordshire|url=http://ukga.org/england/Hertfordshire/towns/MillEnd(Rickmansworth).html|publisher=UK Genealogy Archives|accessdate=20 August 2013}} 4. ^{{cite book| last = An Old Inhabitant (Young Crawley)| title = Guide to Hertfordshire, A Concise History of the County| url = http://www.hertfordshire-genealogy.co.uk/data/places/places-m/mill-end/mill-end.htm| accessdate = 24 August 2013| year = 1880| publisher = Simson & Company| location = Hertford, UK}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Mill End|url=http://www.hertfordshire-genealogy.co.uk/data/places/places-m/mill-end/mill-end.htm|publisher=hertfordshire-genealogy.co.uk|accessdate=20 August 2013}} 6. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.astruc.s.easynet.co.uk/tornado_register/history.htm |title = The History of the Tornado |last1 = Malins |first1 = Dave |website = www.astruc.s.easynet.co.uk/tornado_register |publisher = Tornado Register |accessdate = 28 August 2013}} 7. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url = http://www.election-maps.co.uk/index.jsp |title = Election Maps |website = www.election-maps.co.uk |publisher = Ordnance Survey |location = Southampton, Hampshire |accessdate = 4 September 2013}} 8. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url = http://www.threerivers.gov.uk/Default.aspx/Web/ElectedMembersListPage |title = How to Contact Your Councillor, 20 June 2013 (linked from the Councillors web page) |website = www.threerivers.gov.uk |publisher = Three Rivers District Council |location = Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire |format = PDF |accessdate = 7 September 2013 |deadurl = yes |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20130527073753/http://www.threerivers.gov.uk/Default.aspx/Web/ElectedMembersListPage |archivedate = 27 May 2013 |df = dmy-all}} 9. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.threerivers.gov.uk/Default.aspx/Web/AboutUs |title = A-Z of Services (2012-13) (linked from the About Three Rivers web page) |website = www.threerivers.gov.uk |publisher = Three Rivers District Council |location = Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire |page = 3 |format = PDF |accessdate = 3 September 2013}} 10. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.threerivers.gov.uk/Default.aspx/Web/Licensing1 |title = Licensing |website = www.threerivers.gov.uk |publisher = Three Rivers District Council |location = Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire |accessdate = 3 September 2013}} 11. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.threerivers.gov.uk/Default.aspx/Web/Benefits |title = Benefits |website = www.threerivers.gov.uk |publisher = Three Rivers District Council |location = Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire |accessdate = 3 September 2013}} 12. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.threerivers.gov.uk/Default.aspx/Web/Police |title = Police |website = www.threerivers.gov.uk |publisher = Three Rivers District Council |location = Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire |accessdate = 3 September 2013}} 13. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.chorleywood-pc.gov.uk/councillors-by-ward.html |title = Chorleywood Parish Council, Councillors by Ward |website = www.chorleywood-pc.gov.uk |publisher = Chorleywood Parish Council |location = Chorleywood, Hertfordshire |accessdate = 8 September 2013}} 14. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.threerivers.gov.uk/Default.aspx/Web/LocalElections |title = Parish Council Elections -
