Residential suburb in Harare, Zimbabwe
Hatfield is a middle income residential suburb in the south of Harare, Zimbabwe. The suburb was laid out in 1920.
Hatfield was named after the ancestral home of the Marquess of Salisbury. It was first settled on by Robert Snodgrass and David Mitchell, two transport riders who made a fortune selling whisky to newly arrived settlers in 1891. The partnership broke up shortly after another property, a subdivision of the farm, near today’s Willowvale, which was given the name of Ardbennie, had been acquired.[1]
