There are records of a farm on this site in 1321, though this farm house clearly doesn't date back that far. Clitter apparently means Clay and may be a reference to the type of soil in the area. A pocket history of the farm is available at http://www.barnet.gov.uk/info/940042/hendon_and_golders_green/733/hendon_and_golders_green/11
