About

North Ward encompasses a mix of residential neighbourhoods and key transport corridors to the north of the city centre. The area includes the districts of Dogsthorpe and part of Eastfield, characterised primarily by post-war housing estates with local shopping parades catering to daily needs. Its western boundary is defined by the A15, a major route leading out towards the Lincolnshire fens, while to the east it borders the expansive green space of Central Park and the River Nene.

A notable feature within the ward is the presence of the regional headquarters for Anglian Water, situated near the parkway system. The area is also home to the Peterborough City Hospital, a significant employer and facility serving the wider region. Residential streets are generally quiet, with several schools and community centres serving the local population, creating a settled, functional part of the city.
