At the northeast end is the junction of Parkside and Mill Road, where the road continues as East Road, a dual carriageway. To the northwest is Parker's Piece, a large grassed area with footpaths.

The most important building along it in the early 19th century was the Cambridge Town Gaol. However, by the late 19th century, the construction of large houses with landscaped gardens meant that the street became a fashionable residential area. Some of these houses were replaced during the 1960s and 1970s. The street now forms part of the busy ring road, with the associated traffic problems that brings, especially for the many cyclists in the city.A stage of the 2014 Tour de France started from Gonville Place.
