Peterborough as it used to be: Pub landlords and landladies you might remember from the 2000s

Everyone remembers the good old Peterborough pubs they used to drink in years ago, though not all of them are still around, sadly.

A big part of the attraction of the ‘local’ was the people behind the bar, not just your drinking partners.

Maybe you were greeted with a friendly smile and a “what you having” by one or more of these landladies and landlords uncovered in the PT archives?

Back in the 2000s they were running the likes of The Volunteer, Old John Clare, Elm Tree Tavern, The Triangle, Goodbarns Yard, Wheatsheaf and The Oxcart.

And while you are feeling nostalgic, here’s some old pubs we have lost.
