Alban Way, the old Smallford Station platform.
Alban Way is a cycle and footpath which runs along the route of the old Hatfield to St Albans railway. This platform was the Smallford Station. The bridge carries traffic on Station Road. The station was opened in 1866, firstly as Springfield, then renamed in 1879. It closed to passengers in 1951 but continued for freight use until 1969.

Smallford: A1057 Hatfield Road and Listed Milepost
The A1057 was once the A414 before that number was assigned to the parallel main road to the south. The milepost in the hedge on the left is white-painted cast iron and dates from about 1820. It is inscribed Hatfield 2 on the top, and St Albans 3 and, curiously, Reading 48 on one of the sides, indicating that this must have been an old turnpike route bypassing and running north-west of London. The milepost is Grade II Listed.
