Preston City Centre

[blue b4 the moon]

Preston town centre is an absolute shit hole. Probably no different to most town Centres these days but it’s a mix of boarded up shops, charity and pound shops, takeaways and homeless people. As for the bus station, it’s a fucking eyesore for me.

Shame as Preston has a lot going for it. Some great parks like avenham and miller park, fantastic links to Manchester, M6 etc. cracking little suburbs like Penwortham which is 10 minutes walk from the town centre and a lovely place. Just a shame the actual town centre is a dump.

I can echo this post.

Spent 18 months in & around Penwortham roughly one day a week upto the end(ish) of last year dealing with stuff at my deceased father-in-laws house and it's really nice in the centre.

Preston however, as the kids say "fuck that shit", just another Rochdale/Oldham town centre.

Used to love milkshakes in there as a kid in the 80’s. Was always a proper treat.

I do like it in there. Just googled it was established in 1932!! Quite often drive over from Blackpool for breakfast.

Don't be like that. I thought that, by my usual low standards, it wasn't that bad.
