Linslade
Linslade is an English town, located on the Bedfordshire side of the Bedfordshire-Buckinghamshire border (and roughly a third-way between London and Birmingham). It abuts onto the town of Leighton Buzzard with which it forms the civil parish of Leighton-Linslade. Linslade was transferred from Buckinghamshire in 1965, and was previously a separate urban district in its own right. It remained part of the Diocese of Oxford until 2008 when it joined Leighton Buzzard in the Diocese of St Albans. The original Anglo-Saxon settlement of Linslade, which was prominent during the 13th century, was not located at the modern site, but is to be found further north, and survives today as the hamlet of ''Old Linslade''. The present location superseded the original during the 1840s, after massive growth associated with the construction of the Grand Union Canal and—particularly—the London and Birmingham Railway (now known as the West Coast Main Line). Linslade underwent a second major period of expansion, again associated with the railways, during the 1970s.
==Etymology==
The name ''Linslade'' is Anglo Saxon in origin, and may mean "river crossing near a spring". (Though other plausible meanings exist.〔(http://met.open.ac.uk/genuki/big/eng/bkm/Linslade/Index.html ) ''met.open.ac.uk''〕) The original form, recorded—for example—in the ''Anglo-Saxon Chronicle'' of 966, was ''Hlincgelad''; then linchlade, pronounced lince-lade but by the time of the Domesday Book, in 1086, it had become ''Lincelada''.〔
(http://www.leighton-linslade.com/domesday/transcript2.html ) ''leighton-linslade.com''〕 The name continued to evolve, e.g. Lynchelade,〔Plea Rolls of the Court of Common Pleas; National Archives; CP 40/541; Year 1396; http://aalt.law.uh.edu/AALT6/R2/CP40no541a/bCP40no541adorses/IMG_0815.htm; 7th entry, with "Buk" in the margin; the name appears on the first & second lines, where John Child lived & where the supposed trespass occurred. The surname of second plaintiff is "Holynden", a near-by hamlet〕 in 1396, first appearing in its modern form in the 16th or 17th century,〔(http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=42585 ) ''british-history.ac.uk''〕 but with variations continuing into the 19th century.〔(http://www.leighton-linslade.com/name/linslade.html ) ''leighton-linslade.com''〕
