    Why Move to Preston?

    Located in the county of Lancashire, Preston obtained city status in 2002, becoming England’s 50th city in the 50th year of Queen Elizabeth II’s reign!

    It lies on the north bank of the River Ribble and is connected to both the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and the Lancaster Canal.

    During the Industrial Revolution the town grew quickly. First due to weaving, with the inventor of the spinning frame being born in the town and then went on to become a densely populated engineering centre, with large industrial plants.

    Although manufacturing still has an impact in Preston, it has declined in recent years.

    The city’s economy now relies much more on larger employers in other sectors like finance, telecommunications and engineering.

    Preston has been the subject of bad press in the past, however, today its council has been working incredibly hard to enhance the city’s reputation by pioneering a number of initiatives.

    Some of which have already been implemented such as the now much improved and protected post-war bus station.

    There has also been a marked increase in the number of new homes being constructed.

    There are currently 15 new housing developments across the region. Further to this, open spaces and parks have been cleaned up and the economy is most certainly on the up!

    Preston has some of the best transport links in the country. The M6 motorway provides a direct artery to cities and towns north and south.

    As well as getting to the large cities of Manchester and Liverpool quickly, by train you can also be in London in two hours 15 minutes and Glasgow in 2 hours 20 minutes.

    Preston is certainly paving the way and providing the tools for more jobs and committing to making the city a better place far into the future for those who live here.

    Preston Schools & Education

    Preston is a great place to study. There are various institutions that are highly regarded by the governing body, Ofsted, which is certainly a very big draw to the city.

    There are currently 35 primary schools and eleven secondaries in the Preston area.

    Primaries regarded as “outstanding” by Ofsted include Cop Lane C of E Primary School, St Andrew’s C of E Primary School and St Gregory’s Catholic Primary School.

    “Outstanding” secondaries within Preston include Archbishop Temple C of E High School and Our Lady’s Catholic High School.

    There are four colleges serving the city with Preston College having two main sites Fulwood and a smaller building located next to Moor Park.

    The college offers vocational subjects and academic courses at a sixth form college level.

    The fast-growing University of Central Lancashire is the closest higher education provider.

    It has over 30,000 students and is the19th largest university in the UK in terms of student numbers.

    Following a relatively recent £200 million expansion programme UCLAN offers a wide range of courses from Foundation Entry to Master’s degrees.

    Things to Do in Preston

    The county of Lancashire contains a fantastic choice when it comes to leisure pursuits.

    You can be at several beautiful and vibrant seaside resorts within an hour including Lytham St Annes, Fleetwood, Morecambe and Blackpool.

    Within the city boundary, residents can enjoy prime time in Preston’s many parks and green spaces; Avenham, Miller, Moor, Ribbleton, Ashton, Haslam, Mill Lane, Winckley are all popular green spaces and provide the perfect opportunity for outside hobbies and interests.

    If you enjoy cycling, the scenic, mainly off-road and traffic free ‘the guild wheel’ is a 21-mile circuit around the whole of Preston. Not only is it used by those on two wheels, it’s also a popular place for walking and jogging.

    Granted a Guild Merchant charter in 1179, has Preston the status of a market town. Ever since this establishment, Preston has held a weekly market known for top quality cheeses, meat, fruit and vegetables, fish and even flowers.

    The market sits alongside the high street, where there is also a diverse selection of popular high street shops and smaller independent boutiques.

    For those who love to play sport, West View Better Health leisure Centre and Fulwood Leisure Centre boast plenty of activities to join in with, including the local amateur football team, fitness classes, spa facilities and several children’s clubs.

    The Harris Museum and Art Gallery is a chance to learn more about the story of Preston through a combination of history and art.

    It features lots of family friendly features and hands on entertainment.
