The archdeaconry was created by Order in Council on 23 July 1912 from the ancient archdeaconries of Middlesex[http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/a2a/records.aspx?cat=074-dl_4&cid=0#0 The National Archives – Diocese of London] and of London; at its erection it consisted the rural deaneries of Enfield, of Holborn, and of Tottenham (from the London archdeaconry) and of Hampstead, of Hornsey, of St Marylebone, of St Pancras, and of Willesden (from the Middlesex archdeaconry).{{London Gazette |issue=28629 |date=23 July 1912 |pages=5402–5403 }} Part of the archdeaconry was split off to create the Charing Cross archdeaconry before 1989. The Hampstead archdeaconry is geographically equivalent to the episcopal area overseen by the area Bishop of Edmonton.
