The Buildings of Preston

It may have many modern shops, but a wander around the city centre of Preston last month also revealed that there are several fine old buildings as well, like this one above in Fishergate.

Sometimes if you look up at a building it can reveal all sorts of architectural features, such as this one now used by Greggs and a coffee shop. 

Waterstones book shop use this fine looking building.

I wonder what this building was before the 'Office' moved in?

I believe this used to be a Bank.

Georgian architecture possibly? Now up for sale. 

A grand entrance to the Miller Arcade. 

Preston Town Hall.

The building is dated 1837.

The Harris Museum.

The Black Horse pub. It's worth calling in if only to see the well preserved interior. 

The Corn Exchange.
