Goff's Oak is a village in the borough of Broxbourne, in Hertfordshire, England, sitting on the northern edge of London’s commuter belt. Its name comes from a notable oak once associated with the medieval Goff family, and the village retains a semi‑rural feel with a village green, pockets of woodland and farmland nearby, and convenient access to the Lee Valley and London.
The local economy is largely small‑scale - shops, schools and independent businesses - while many residents commute to the capital via nearby stations such as Cuffley or Broxbourne. A strong community spirit, conservation interest and occasional village events help preserve a traditional village atmosphere despite development pressures.
