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.

St Bartholomew's is the Roman Catholic church serving the south side of St Albans. Its foundation stone was laid in 1962 and services commenced in 1964.
St Julians is an area in St Albans named after a former leper hospice and later a farm, which was on the west side of Watling Street, more or less opposite where the church is now.
St Albans is named after St Alban who was the first British Christian martyr, and who was beheaded around 320.
