Preston in the 1950s was a very different city to what we see before us today - it was a city where horse-drawn coffin carts were seen on the cobble-stone streets and where many of the roads we know had yet to even be conceived.
With that in mind, take a look at some of our best archive retro pictures of Preston from 1957 and 1958.
These are some incredible historic pictures, so have a look and see if you recognise any familiar sights or faces...
Still fancy a bit more old school reminiscing? Be sure not to miss some of our other most popular recent retro picture collections...
