    Contents Luton: Straw Hat Boom Town Luton: Straw Hat Boom Town The resources in this pack focus on Luton from the mid 1800s to the first decade of the 20th century. This period saw the rapid growth of Luton from a country market town to an urban industrial town. The process changed the size and appearance of the town and the lives of all those who lived and worked here. The aim of this pack is to provide a core of resources that will help pupils studying local history at KS2 and 3 form a picture of Luton at this time. The primary evidence included in this pack may photocopied for educational use. If you wish to reproduce any part of this park for any other purpose then you should first contact Luton Museum Service for permission. Please remember these sheets are for educational use only. Normal copyright protection applies. Contents 1: Teachers’ Notes Suggestions for activities using the resources Bibliography 2: The Town and its Buildings 19th Century Descriptions A collection of references to the town from a variety of sources. 1855 Map of Luton This map shows the growth of the town to the show west and the beginnings of High Town to the north-east. The railway is only a proposition at this point in time. Luton From St Anne’s Hill, 1860s This view looking north-west over the town shows the Midland Railway line to London.
