Kitchen splashbacks in Houghton Regis
Houghton Regis is a town and civil parish contiguous to the larger town of Dunstable to the south. Its parish council provides certain sports and open space amenities and includes the ancient hamlets of Bidwell, Thorn, and Sewell. Houghton Regis, along with its near neighbours of Dunstable and Luton form the Luton and Dunstable Urban Area, with a population over 230,000.
Some Houghton Regis history
Houghton Regis is considerably older than Dunstable, and it is mentioned in the Domesday Book when it was called Houstone. At the time of the Domesday Survey a great part of what is now Dunstable was included in Houghton parish. When Henry I founded Dunstable he gave in compensation to the men of Houghton a wood called Buckwood. At that time it paid in tax the large amount of three pounds by weight and twenty shillings of blanch silver to the King and one ounce of gold for the Sheriff.
Bordered by the Chiltern Hills, the town was once a small village that had its character changed when it was earmarked for a massive London overspill estate in the 1950s and 60s. The only remains of the manors, rectory land and cottage demesnes around the small village centre are names such as Tithe Farm Road. An indication of the planners attempts to make the London migrants feel at home is the naming of the local estate roads after London landmarks; Chelsea Gardens is an example.
Remnants of the past of Houghton Regis are still apparent with, for example, the fifteenth century Parish Church of All Saints with an excellent example of a Norman tower and the former Squires residence of Houghton Hall, built in the eighteenth century.
Between the late 1960s and the early 1970s, many of the High Street shops were demolished along with a chapel to make way for industrial units, many of which have since been demolished themselves. The main shop in town was a Wavy Line store, which has since been used as a motorbike and car showroom. A fish and chip shop, Tansleys, was at the entrance to what was the access road into the Co-op Store; the current fish and chip shop on Bedford Road was previously occupied by Georges, a tobacconist and confectioner but in the early 1900s was a public house. In front of the existing closed All Saints Parish Church graveyard, facing onto the High Street, was a row of cottages, once the workhouses, complete with village lock up at the end of the terrace. The door to the former lock up can now be found on display at the Stockwood Discovery Centre museum in Luton. The White House, the home of a Miss Freeman, a school teacher and aunt of Gary Cooper, who lived in the town during his youth, plus Jasper Perrys green grocer and Birds bakery stood on the High Street on the opposite side of the road to the church.
Some facts about Houghton Regis
The famous American Actor Gary Cooper lived, and went to school, in Houghton Regis. The men of Houghton claimed to be exempt from tolls in Dunstable market. The inhabitants of Houghton Regis were often employed in straw plaiting. In 1689 they and those of neighbouring villages petitioned against the Bill that made it compulsory to wear woollen hats, pointing out that the straw plaiters would be ruined and that the farmers also would suffer, as they now obtained good prices for their straw, and English wool not being suitable for hatmaking, they would not be in any way compensated.
