About Peterborough Sense of Place.

Peterborough Sense of Place is a Peterborough City Council website that explores the history of the city and the people that made it; how they have responded to challenges and opportunities to create different lifestyles. This project is also a gateway to images and sounds that give an insight into what makes Peterborough special: the people, culture, history and nature of the city.

This is a New Opportunities funded digitisation venture that involves 5 partners and brings together heritage material from different sources for the first time. This project is also part of the East of England Sense of Place Consortium, which consists of 5 local organisations: Cambridgeshire County Council, Essex County Council, Norfolk County Council, Peterborough City Council and Suffolk County Council.
