In November 2013 I started to go through the Local News pages of the old Peterborough Advertiser, copies of which are available in Peterborough Library. I had already looked through some copies from the 1920s for a story about my grandfather who had worked on Peterborough Cathedral roof when they were replacing beams destroyed by Death Watch Beetle.
In most cases I have summarised the content of the reports in my own words, or there would have been a lot of writing to do in the library! 1900 to 1906 took me a 6 hour visit.
I have also received advice that I may upload these transcribed reports to this website. Should there be details anyone would like removed then please contact me.
