The Albion Inn was located on Park Road, Preston. Today’s Looking Back photo was taken in 1960 and looks south towards the entrance with Church Street before demolition took place. All was swept away during the construction of the new ring road. The Albion Inn was on the corner of Edmund Street and Park Road.
