24. The Kardomah Cafe, Fishergate, Preston 1966 The Kardomah occupied the former post office premises on the north side of Fishergate. The post office vacated this location when the new central post office opened on the Market place in 1903. Hardings then moved in to the buiding for a time before handing over to the Kardomah who were able to put to good use the original post office counter which was retained in place. The cafe closed in 1966
