Orton Mere
Peterborough, UK - Jamie - Sunday, September 18th, 2005 : goo
[previous] :: [next]
It's a popular place for a cheap family day out; and also quite popular with trainspotters. The Nene Valley Railway stops here. It's a sort of railway heritage touristy private railway sort of thing. The end of the line is Railworld which i posted some photos of yesterday. In the other direction I think it goes as far as a small village called Alwalton. It's the kind of place where the people claim to be from Peterborough when actually they aren't. Much like the town i grew up in.
So Orton Mere is part of a Network of citywide nature reserves and suchlike operated by Nene Park Trust or something like that. Every beautyspot has a seedy underbelly though.
This is my church. This is where I heal my hurt

I don't recall seeing your tag, but i'd like to. I think the appeal of orton mere is its seclusion. If you wanna double up an get some shit up on here email the editors of this site for my contact info m8
