ABANDON HOPE? NEVER, AT ST. ALBANS GATEWAY  

THE city of St. Albans, which is situated twenty miles north of London in  

Hertfordshire, is the modern successor of the ancient town of Verulamium,  

founded soon after the Roman conquest of a.d. 43. Verulamium became the  

centre of Roman civilisation in Britain and perhaps it was because of this  

that Boadicea stormed the town in a.d. 60, laid it waste and killed 70,000  

Roman soldiers. Twenty years later, at the instance of Agricola, Verulamium  

was rebuilt.  

The name of the modern city is derived from that of Roman soldier,  

Albanus, who embraced the Christian faith, and was executed in the 4th  

century by his countrymen for having sheltered Christian priest; he thus  

became the first Christian to suffer martyrdom in England. He was executed  

on Holmhurst Hill and there, in a.d. 793, Offa, King of Mercia, built church  

and founded Benedictine Abbey which grew in wealth and importance, and  

was followed later by Norman Abbey. Round this ecclesiastical centre  

grew the medieval town of St. Albans to which succeeding centuries have  

made their characteristic architectural additions.  

The principal entrance to the Monastery of St. Albans was the splendid  

Abbey Gateway, shown in the accompanying illustration, and which is all  

that remains of the many monastic buildings. It was built about 1365  

on the site of an earlier gateway and it was used for many centuries as  

prison. The dungeons in which offenders were confined still exist beneath the  

building. Until 1650 trials were held in the large room above the gate.  

The building was the scene of great riot during the peasants’ revolt,  

known as the Wat Tyler rebellion, in 1381. fireplace in room on the  

second floor bears the arms of Charles and here, it is said, one of the  

earliest printing presses was set up in a.d. 1480. The Abbey Gateway  

ceased to be the town gaol in 1868, and two years later it became one of  

the buildings of St. Albans School, for which purpose it is still used.
