Northborough is a small village and civil parish in the unitary authority of Peterborough, in the historic county of Cambridgeshire. It sits on slightly higher ground at the edge of the River Nene valley, overlooking low-lying fenland, and enjoys good road links to nearby towns while retaining a distinctly rural character.
The parish has a long history reflected in a medieval manor house and an older parish church, and its economy remains rooted in agriculture alongside a growing commuter population who travel into Peterborough and surrounding centres for work. Community life is centred on village institutions, occasional local events and the landscape of fields and waterways that mark this part of the Fens.
