The history of St Albans goes back many hundred years. The town began life in 20 BC when the indigenous Celtic tribe built their capital here. It was a settlement of wooden cottages with thatched roofs. When the Romans invaded England in 43 AD, they took over this Celtic town and named it Verulamium. The growth of Verulamium was made possible by the market and its close proximity to London.
