Stanground Lock

Highlight • Structure

If your planning to take a short brake on your tour then this is the perfect spot, you might be greated by a swan or even a sea lion. It gets flooded during winter and spring, please check the river levels first especially if you are crossing on the north bank using the Millenium foot bridge.

Henry Penn Bridge

Highlight • Cycleway

Great cycle route along the river, which feels a million miles from Peterborough centre. I passed through early evening and there were all sorts of water sport taking place from rowing to white water slalom.
