Your territory is already beginning to receive a feel of its own, here’s what I would do to make it better:
In the center part of town there tends to not be a lot of space between roads, and buildings are tightly spaced together. For a city the size of this, the inner core should have a sort of
homey feeling and have more restaurants and small shops. (Like on Second and North you did a perfect job with that.)
The major roads are well-planned and the suburbs are mostly good too, but in some areas (specifically the north and northeast) the roads are unrealistically spaced too close to each other.
Maybe some stores/malls/town centers? Besides the downtown core your city seems to be mostly residential.
Adding hills would be a good idea.
Other than that, Newbyford looks like a plausible British town. Great job!
