Leighton-Linslade Urban District Leighton-Linslade Urban District Leighton-Linslade was an urban district in Bedfordshire, England from 1965 to 1974. It comprised the single civil parish of Leighton-Linslade. Leighton-Linslade UD was created on 1 April 1965 coinciding with an adjustment to county boundaries which led to the disbanding of Leighton Buzzard Urban District in Bedfordshire and Linslade Urban District in Buckinghamshire. The new urban district encompassed the two original towns of Leighton Buzzard and Linslade which had become contiguous through industrial expansion and housing development and henceforth was treated for administrative purposes as a single town called Leighton-Linslade. The urban district was abolished in 1974
Church of All Saints, Leighton Buzzard Fountains Abbey (there is an historical connection) and more locally Chicksands Priory. It is also worth noting that the fan shaped slots at the free ends of the stalls are indicative that they have been shortened at some point. The organ was rebuilt following the fire of 1985 by Harrison and Harrison of Durham. A specification and photographs of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register. Following restoration work of the past seventeen years on the building a thorough organ overhaul was undertaken in 2018. Church of All Saints, Leighton Buzzard All Saints Church, Leighton Buzzard
