Peterborough

The cheapest unleaded in town currently starts near 141p per litre. The very top of the local range is set by a small number of expensive outliers, and most stations sit much closer together than the headline gap suggests.

Supermarket forecourts from Morrisons usually anchor the bottom of the local range. Supermarkets account for 2 of the 28 stations here, with branded and independent sites making up the remainder.

The low end of the market has recently been held by Esso around Esso. Forecourts on Johns Street and Bretton Way carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first.

On average, unleaded here runs a little under the wider East of England figure. Diesel averages around 162p per litre across the stations we track in Peterborough.

The comparison covers stations up to roughly 8 km out, which keeps out-of-town supermarkets and bypass sites in the same view as the town centre. The cheapest station in Peterborough is not fixed; the low spot moves between forecourts through the week, so the current ordering matters more than habit.
