Cumbergate, Cobden Street,
Wheelyard where did they get their names?
Why is Peterborough even called
Peterborough?
Our guide will take you through city streets,
exploring the origins of the names and giving a fascinating insight
into the history of Peterborough through our streets and their
changing uses over the centuries.
You'll also discover the story of those
streets that no longer exist, and the people and trades that
have given their names to the city today.
