The railway had an important impact on the development of the village. Cuffley was reached by the Great Northern Railway in 1910, as part of the plan to create the Hertford Loop, as a strategic alternative to the main line out of Kings Cross to the North, by extending the line from Enfield Chase. Before 1910, Cuffley was just a small collection of farms centred on the village green outside The Plough inn at the top of Plough Hill. The new accessibility to London by train triggered the start of the expansion of the village as a convenient rural location within easy commuting distance of London. The Great Northern Railway (GNR) was a British railway company, founded by the London & York Railway Act of 1846. ...

The early houses built along Tolmers Road were reminiscent of the Garden City style of housing as found at Letchworth. Later in the 1930s, several estates were built in the village, including many bungalows. A further major expansion of the village occurred in the 1950s and 1960s. The village is also noted for the larger houses along the Ridgeway. Letchworth Garden City, more commonly Letchworth, is a town in Hertfordshire, England. ...
On September 3, 1916 the German airship SL-11 was shot down and crashed in Cuffley during an aerial bombardment intended for London. This incident is commemorated by a Memorial on East Ridgeway to Lieutenant W. Leefe Robinson, the pilot who shot the airship down. He was awarded the Victoria Cross. There is also a model of the airship in the village hall. Contrary to many reports of the incident, the SL-11 airship was not a Zeppelin but an army Schütte-Lanz airship. Regardless, the local football team is still nicknamed 'The Zeps' after this event. September 3 is the 246th day of the year (247th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
