Prospect Road
Victorian cottages in Prospect Road, built c.1870.
No 25, on the left, was for a time the home of the builder William Longmire, who was responsible for much of the restoration work carried out on St Albans Abbey in the 1870s/80s, firstly under the supervision of Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and then Edmund Beckett (later Lord Grimthorpe). He was also involved in the building of Batchwood Hall for Lord Grimthorpe, also in the 1870s. Another of his works was to extend the chapel at Lincoln's Inn in London in the 1880s, with the architect again being Lord Grimthorpe. Part of this involved the removal of a 15 foot high arch, which he reconstructed in the rear garden of no 25 where it still stands (see Image). The house was originally named Ousby Cottage, Ousby near Penrith being where Longmire was born in 1825.

Digital display at Abbey Station. I'm sure that the Abbey Line service will not be improved, as there is currently no passing loop between St Albans Abbey and Watford Junction.
