Warnings Or Dangers: Confusing as hell...I'm told
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Being a born Peterborian, I had never considered quite how confusing the centre of the city is to anyone travelling to the city for the first time.

    I attended a conference recently at the Bull Hotel, and it was quite stunning the number of other delegates who commented about how difficult it was to find the place.

    Each time they tried to get into the centre, the one way system seemed to spit them out onto another roundabout. Some delegates seemed to have spent ages driving around. The poor signposting didn't help them much either.

    Just in case it is ever of use to anyone, the car park entrance is by the Library, approached from the Northern end of Broadway - easy,. Just hanger right behind the curry house in Fitzwilliam street (on the Broadway side of course, not the bollarded bit, or the other bit of the road by Watkins and Stafford). See, how easy was that !

     An interesting visit to your hometown. Peterborough seems like a very nice place to get lost

     It's still there?? I remember swimming there in the 60's and 70's. I think I did a 20 mile walk to raise money for the "new" indoor pool round the back :)
