Buskers, Street Entertainers
- Tim Westwoods dad was Bill the Anglican Bishop of Peterborough until 1996.
- Nobby the tramp - who's been given ownership of the bus shelter he's been living in for the last twenty years... a living urban legend.
- Nobby the Tramp in his Orton Bus Shelter. He has his own set of gold clubs. The juggler outside the Body Shop, haven't seen him in a while, he was a laugh though. The guy outside Westgate Arcade and his dog.
- "Mad Marge" from Bretton used to walk around in a green dress and wellies.
- You can't talk about the Boro without mentioning Nobby the Tramp...
- Again miranda
- you could always goto orton centre or the helrington or any other place that sell drink and see piss head phil and his mates drinking cans of tenants super or any other cheap superstrength drink
- nobby the tramp has lived in a bus shelter on oundle road for as long as i can remember! and a fella playin jingle bells with bongo drums appeared last xmas can still remember the absurdity of it all!
- Guy who sits outside the Queensgate centre around Cathedral Square banging his drum. Very cool.
- Piss annoying drummer in Cathedral square every Saturday.
- Odd street entertainer in Cathedral Square, odd busker too but mainly Big Issue Seller
- town centre has bosnian folk band- cool!!
- For many years now - at least 10!! There has been a juggler outside of the Body Shop, always wears facepaint. Always a happy chap tho!
- Not really a busker but Nobby the Tramp is a local celeb due to the Councils efforts to kick him out of house and home. He can usually be found in his bus shelter at the junction of Oundle Road and Orton Mere.
- The wicked juggeler outside Mc Donolds in cathedrial on a saturday hes pretty cool.
- the pissed guy in front of the hospital well worth chatting to
- Some rather strange Elvis impersonating Evangelists
- There's always a bloke playing the bagpipes, he gets moved on every hour so that the workaholics can work through their lunch hours with no disturbances. And the bloke by the McDonnalds entrance to Queensgate is great fun, he let's you play with his balls!!!
- Outside Queensgate, around Woolworths and Marks and Spencer's.
