It was a great decade and these pictures are specifically from 1967. From the release of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band to Charlie Chaplin's last film and England basking in their World Cup glory the year before, 1967 was a heady time to be alive.
And life in Preston was no different - take a look at some of our best archive pictures from that heady era.
These are some incredible historic pictures, so have a look and see if you recognise any familiar sights or faces...
