Orton Goldhay is one of the distinct "townships" developed in the 1970s as part of Peterborough’s ambitious urban expansion. Situated to the southwest of the city centre, it was designed with the New Town philosophy of clustered housing integrated with green space and separated from main through-traffic. At its heart sits the Orton Centre, which provides essential daily amenities, and the locality is notably well-served by the city’s comprehensive "busway" and cycle path network. Geographically, it is bordered by the expansive Nene Park and Ferry Meadows, meaning that within minutes of leaving the residential streets, you can be walking along the River Nene or around the lakes. While the architecture reflects its mid-century origins, the area has matured significantly, with established trees and footpaths that link it seamlessly to the neighbouring areas of Orton Waterville and Orton Malborne. It remains a practical, well-connected pocket of the city that benefits from being right on the doorstep of some of the region’s best open countryside.
