Map of the UK

Werrington lies on the northern edge of Peterborough in Cambridgeshire, originally a small village that grew into a suburban district through 20th‑century development. The area is often thought of in terms of its older "village" core and newer estate developments, and benefits from several green spaces and ponds known locally as Werrington Lakes, with easy access to the River Nene valley and surrounding countryside.

Locally there is a mix of housing, schools, small shops and community facilities, so it feels like a self-contained neighbourhood while remaining closely linked to Peterborough for work and wider services. The community has a steady programme of local groups and events, and recent years have seen modest investment and regeneration aimed at improving facilities and sustaining the strong neighbourhood spirit.
