The History of Leighton Buzzard: It is thought that there existed settlements in and close to what is now named Leighton Buzzard harping back to prehistoric times, early artefacts and coins discovered nearby give evidence of this fact. The historic Watling Street (engineered by the Romans), now known as the A5, came through the nearby settlements of Hockliffe and Dunstable over 2,000 years ago, and the Romans will have at least been aware of the Leighton Buzzard settlement at this time.

The Anglo-Saxons came after the Romans, and it was they who used a market sometime in the tenth century, and relics uncovered indicate that they were dwelling in the area probably from the 6th Century. The settlement existing then is not observed till 906 at which time the Danes made a peace treaty at Tiddenfoot, the Domesday Book of 1086 named Leighton Manor.

The ecclesiastical parish of Leighton Buzzard, historically, embodied a way greater area than just the town itself, and incorporated the settlements of Heath & Reach, Billington, Stanbridge and Eggington. The "Leighton" in the town's name may have come from the old English meaning "a clearing in the woods", the "Buzzard" component was not to be inserted till the twelfth century when the Dean of Lincoln found it important to distinguish it from the other "Leighton" which was within his diocese. The Manors of Leighton would be tenanted to an assortment of tenants over the ages, such as the Leighs of Stoneleigh, who supported Charles I in the English Civil War (1642-1645).

Leighton Buzzard grew even bigger through the ensuing decades and the development of a canal and a railway service in the 19th Century saw the town develop and expand. Modern day Leighton Buzzard can be termed a prospering market town that's witnessed improved development in the past few decades.
