More about this scene
A bus to Pedders Lane and Ashton-on-Ribble plies down Fishergate, but so busy has Preston become, that drastic alterations in regulating traffic have had to be made. Barratts shoe shop is to the far right. The town hall has gone from the skyline; not until 1964 was a showpiece shop and office block put on the site, to the horror of some Prestonians. In the background rises the spire of the parish church.
