Peterborough

Peterborough Synopsis

This book brings to light a fascinating collection of images from the city's museum archives and library files. They present a vivid portrait of the changing city, and will give the reader an evocative insight into Peterborough's past. Some of the views are of streets and buildings which are instantly recognisable, but others show scenes that have long since disappeared, been demolished or altered beyond recognition to make way for redevelopment. These pictures are priceless, capturing moments in Peterborough's history and in the lives of the city's inhabitants that would otherwise be lost forever.
