This Peterborough City and Cathedral Tour with Crowland Abbey & Trinity Bridge tour is great for anyone making a day trip from London. We would meet you outside Peterborough Station (45 minutes from London)/ Peterborough also has great links with the rest of the country too.
Whilst Peterborough might not be the first place you’d think of visiting, just a few minutes walk from the railway station is the historic centre of the city.
In the middle of the large city square is the wonderful old Guildhall. Built originally in 1671 it has served as both a market and a townhall. A farmers market is still held here regularly along with many over events in the square.
A short stroll away is the really rather wonderful Peterborough Cathedral which we shall explore inside.
Though the site of Peterborough Cathedral was originally Roman, in the 7th century it became a monastic community though that was all but destroyed by the Great Heathen army under the splendidly named Ivar the Boneless. The current Peterborough Cathedral was built after the Norman conquest. Two queens were buried here including Katherine of Aragon whose tomb we will visit.
From here we will make a short journey to the beautiful small town of Crowland. Despite its modest size, Crowland is home to two remarkable historical places of interest.
