13. Student Centre
This University of Central Lancashire building will probably become another 'Marmite' for Preston residents. It is the new Student Centre and prominently University Square of the Adelphi Quarter. Do you love it or hate it? Photo: Kelvin Stuttard
14. St Walburge's Church
The famous spire of St Walburge's Roman Catholic Church has stood like a beacon for Preston residents since work on the building was completed in 1854. There is no doubt that this Grade I listed building is one of the nicest in the city centre. And of course, there's that proud Preston claim to fame of being the tallest spire of any parish church in England Photo: Kelvin Stuttard
15. Preston Minster
Another church to make it on the shortlist of beautiful buildings in the city is the Preston Minster. The historical building sits on an ancient site, with the earliest documentation of a church there in 1094. The current building was built between 1853 and 1855 and features gargoyles and fine detail to feast your eyes on. Inside you can admire high beams, memorials, ornate stained glass windows, and original historical features Photo: Neil Cross
