18 picture memories from the heart of Preston which will take you back to the 1980s

These scenes rewind 40 years ago to the 1980s.

They were busy, thriving times as these photos from the decade show. And also a time of great change, with many buildings being demolished and lost forever. But some of the places pictured here can still be seen in all their glory today. If you have any pictures of Preston in times gone by we would like to feature them on our website.
