Peterborough is one of the largest Cathedral
Cities in East Anglia without a detailed archaeological urban
survey. The Cathedral Project (HEEP Project 4733) has successfully
enhanced Peterborough City Council's Historic Environment Record
(HER) for the area of the historic precincts, focusing on buildings
(extant and lost) and on archaeological remains.
The Cathedral Project database has been
integrated with the HER and is available online. It is accompanied
by an Image and Documents Database which is accessible as part of
the main HER database at Stuart House. The online version should be
available in Spring 2011.
The Cathedral Project has already demonstrated
the value of the analysis and interpretation of detailed
historical, archaeological and architectural information for the
identification and assessment of heritage assets, also providing an
accessible research resource.
