Shop and Restaurants, High Street
Alloro is situated behind the shop down a passageway. I thought that their food and service was very good when I visited.

High Street
Perhaps the shortest High Street in the country, being less than 100m long. Historically, it formed part of the main route out of St Albans to the northwest, originally through its extension along George Street, and later along Verulam Road, following the building of this improved route by Thomas Telford in 1825.
The buildings on the left now are occupied by the Cote Brasserie. Prior to 2009 it was a pub, The Vintry, with the nearer part previously being a Barclays Bank. They are grade II listed - see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1103128.

An unusual war memorial
This war memorial in High Street, St Albans shows those lost by individual streets. I have only seen this in one other place and that was in Islington - see https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4261275
