Here are 13 pubs that would once have welcomed drinkers in the Fenland town near Peterborough that have been lost over the years.
With the odd exception, most of the lost “locals” are still visible on the town’s street scene but are being lived in.
Today’s nostalgic look at the pubs generations of Peterborough people will remember with fondness was sparked by the Lost Pubs Project - online at www.closedpubs.co.uk.
It is a community project set up archive lost pubs nationally before they are forgotten for ever.
If you know of a pub which has closed at any time in the past, submit it, together with any anecdotes, historical information, updates or photographs that you might have. Many of the pubs listed are from local contributors, including: Paul Bryan, Dave Bevis, Kate Jewell, PeterboroughImages, Mike Lewis, Ray Cole and Mark Finney, Neal McKenna, Mike Croxford, Russell Judge and Hania Franek,
