The age old Watling Street (fashioned by the Romans), now identified as the A5, went through the nearby settlements of Hockliffe and Dunstable around about 2,000 years back, and the Romans would have at least been aware of the Leighton Buzzard settlement as they passed it.

The Manors of Leighton would be leased to an assortment of tenants through the years, including the Leighs of Stoneleigh, who backed Charles I throughout the Civil War (1642-1645).

Leighton Buzzard grew even bigger over the succeeding generations and the appearance of a canal and a railway service during the 19th Century saw it develop and develop.
