Dist:0.3km<br/>This massive bank and ditch forms part of the pre-Roman earthwork that ran from the Belgic city of Verulamium to Wheathampstead. Seen here from near Valley Road, it was built between 50 B.C. and 50 A.D., most likely during the latter half of that period.

Dist:0.5km<br/>The large area of hard paving is not very welcoming. A Porch to the front doors would be a useful addition. But alas the money !!

Dist:0.7km<br/>Looking down the hill from adjacent to the entrance to one of the industrial estates on the outskirts of St. Albans. This is in the Marshalswick area and the houses at the bottom of the hill are the last before the road enters the village of Sandridge.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Situated at the junction of Sandridge Road with Beech Road. Reputedly the father of ten illegitimate children, he seems an odd choice to name a pub after!
