The earliest description of Preston dates from the 1690s. It was written By John Kuerden, an antiquarian who had an interest in local history. He describes a journey from the bridge at Walton Le Dale to the west side of Preston. As an historian he frequently mentions the more ancient buildings that he passes. The map below is based on his description, as is the artist’s impression of Preston as it was, long before the industrial revolution.Nationally, William III had become king in 1689.
Next he headed north up Vicarage Street and turned left into St Johns Street; this eventually led to the marketplace and Friargate. There were originally two marketplaces with a smaller one just off St Johns Street. This was used as a fish market in 1690. Just off the fish market was a snicket that led to the main marketplace. This was known as Gin Bow Entry and was surrounded by new buildings at the time.The marketplace also housed the Town Hall or Shambles.
