The square in bloom

-

The multi-million pound redevelopm­ent of Cathedral Square has played a key role in the rejuvenati­on of that part of Peterborou­gh city centre.

The smart paving, street furniture and not forgetting the fountains have made it quite an attraction, and a great focal point on the approach to our cathedral.

But, if you go back to the 1980s things were quite different.

In the main image, check out the gentleman resting on the benches under The Guildhall. It looks like springtime judging by the flower beds in both photos, which are long gone.

I do like the changes but I think I preferred the flower beds.
