	Peterborough - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Peterborough is a city in the east of England.
		Peterborough (Burgh, Burgus sancti Petri) is proved by its original name Medehamstede to have been a Saxon village before 655 when Saxulf, a monk, founded the monastery on land granted to him for that purpose by Penda, king of Mercia.
		Among the privileges claimed by the abbot as early as the 13th century was that of having a prison for felons taken in the soke and borough.

	Peterborough Information - PeterboroughUK.com
		One curious fact about Peterborough is that there is a church (St. Peters) just outside the Cathedral in Cathedral Square.
		The reason for this is that at some point in history the monks of the abbey shut their doors to the general public which meant that they had to build their own church to worship in.
		Designated a "new town" in 1968, Peterborough Development Corporation was formed in partnership with the city council to double the city's population by building new townships and parkways (roads with few access points).

	Size and Shape of Huntingdonshire
		Huntingdonshire is one of the smallest counties in England, Rutland and the old county of Middlesex alone being smaller.
		Northamptonshire forms the northern and north-western boundary, Bedfordshire the south-western, Peterborough in the north and Cambridgeshire the north-eastern, eastern and south-eastern.
		Starting from Peterborough which stands at the junction of the three shires of Northampton, Cambridge and Huntingdon, and working westward, we find that the River Nene does indeed form the limit of the county for some 12 miles or so, but it ceases to do so at Elton.
