Peterborough Cambridgeshire England United Kingdom


Peterborough is mid-way between the East Anglian coast and the Midlands and has excellent road and rail connections both north-south and east-west. The city is 90 miles from London, five miles from the A1, and less than 20 miles from the A14, which links the east coast ports of Felixstowe and Harwich with the Midlands. From medieval times to the start of the industrial revolution, Peterborough was a moderately sized market town on the edge of the Fens. Its real growth started in the mid-19th century, with the arrival of the railways. Peterborough soon became a major railway junction and attracted a number of big industrial companies.
