St Albans: Griffiths Way gasometers
From old Ordnance Survey maps it is evident that the site of the St Albans gas works was once much larger, stretching down to Stephen's Hill, and having its own dedicated railway siding, more or less on the site where Sainsbury's is now. These two holders are all that remains but they are large enough to warrant being individually represented on the current Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 scale mapping.

Demolition of St Albans Gasholders
The gasholders on the site of the former St Alban gasworks are now being demolished. See Image by Nigel Cox of the gasholders in 2009, having been out of use for some years and see Image for a glimpse of one holder in use in 1987.

Redevelopment of former gasholder site
The last area of the former gasworks, where two gasholders remained until 2014, being developed as an extension of the surrounding retail park. I assume it was probably not suitable for housing due to soil contamination?
See Image for the gasholders in situ and Image for them being demolished.
