8. St Walburge
One of the most iconic buildings in Preston is definitely St Walburge's Church. Of course, we all know it is famous for having the tallest spire of any parish church in England. It is this feature, and many others, that contribute to the Roman Catholic church being given Grade I listed status. David Garrard, the historic churches adviser of the Victorian Society said of St Walburge's: "An outstanding building by an ingenious and imaginative architect, St Walburge’s is one of Preston’s greatest historic buildings. It was built to express the pride and confidence of the Roman Catholic community after legal restrictions on religious observance were lifted in the 19th century." Photo: Archive
