St Albans: The King Offa
Just what King Offa would have thought of the fact that a neighbourhood pub in Wallingford Walk on the Cottonmill estate was named after him will unfortunately have to remain a matter of conjecture. That said he did found St Albans Abbey in the 790s shortly before his death in 796.

Berners Drive
Road developed in the c.1950s along with the rest of the area off Cottomnill Lane. The houses on the right would appear to be original, but although the area on the left is shown on the 1960 1:10,000 map as having also been built up, with individual detached houses set diagonally to the road, the ones here would appear to be a substituent redevelopment, dating from the late 1970s according to planning documents.
The tower of St Albans Abbey can be seen in the background.
