Abstract:		 Planning consent was granted for the change of use and extension of a former substation in St Peter's Road, St Albans to create three self-contained flats, a condition for a programme of archaeological monitoring and historic building recording formed part of the planning consent. Albion Archaeology was commissioned to undertake the works. The single storey building was rectangular with external measurements of 11.42m by 6.49m, aligned approximately north-south. It was constructed of dull red to purplish brick in English bond with red brick dressings and a half-hipped tiled roof. A few fittings associated with the original use of the building remain. The substation in St Peter's Road was constructed at a time of urban expansion in St Albans. The design was sympathetic to its surroundings. The building is an interesting example of its type, being an industrial building with the external characteristics of the suburban domestic architecture of the period.
