This is over the road from Cockfosters tube station. The name Cockfosters has been recorded as far back as 1524, and is thought to be either the name of a family, or that of a house which stood on Enfield Chase. One suggestion is that it was "the residence of the cock forester (or chief forester)". Source Wiki.
