Preston is a city and the administrative centre of Lancashire, England. On the north bank of the River Ribble, it is an urban settlement and unparished area that together with surrounding rural civil parishes forms the City of Preston local government district of Lancashire. The district obtained city status in 2002, becoming England's 50th city in the 50th year of Queen Elizabeth II's reign.
Preston and its surrounding area have provided evidence of ancient Roman activity, largely in the form of a Roman road which led to a camp at Walton-le-Dale. The Angles established Preston; its name is derived from the Old English meaning priest's settlement and in the Domesday Book is recorded as Prestune. In the Middle Ages, Preston was a parish and township in the hundred of Amounderness and was granted a Guild Merchant charter in 1179, giving it the status of a market town. Textiles have been produced since the mid-13th century when locally produced wool was woven in people's houses. Flemish weavers who settled in the area in the 14th century helped develop the industry. In the early-18th century, Edmund Calamy described Preston as a pretty town with an abundance of gentry in it, commonly called Proud Preston. Sir Richard Arkwright, inventor of the spinning frame, was born in the town. The most rapid period of growth and development coincided with the industrialisation and expansion of textile manufacturing. Preston was a boomtown of the Industrial Revolution, becoming a densely populated engineering centre, with large industrial plants. The town's textile sector fell into terminal decline from the mid-20th century and Preston has subsequently faced similar challenges to other post-industrial northern towns, including deindustrialisation, economic deprivation and housing issues.
Preston is the seat of Lancashire County Council, houses the main campus of the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) and is home to Preston North End F.C., a founder member of the Football League and the first English football champions.

Acrobat turned filmmaker Will Onda turned out over a 100 films documenting his own family’s events and holidays He also his hometown, Preston, Lancashire, in the early part of the 20th century. After swiftly covering King George V and Queen Mary’s visit to the town the film moves on to its main subject, Preston’s cotton industry, in particular the monumental Horrockses, Crewdson & Co cotton factory on Stanley St.
As well as the classic factory gate scenes popularised in the Edwardian era, Onda ventures inside Horrokses to showcase the industrious, nimble-fingered Prestonians at work inside. John Horrocks set up the textile company in 1791. It manufactured cotton goods that were sold all over the world for over 150 years. The vast works, known locally as ‘The Yellow Factory’, was demolished in the 1960s and 70s. As well as making films, entrepreneurial Will Onda ran a number of cinemas, a theatre and a dance hall. He also set up the Preston Film Service to import and distribute films to cinemas.

Vinyl Odyssey Vol. 1 - Preston, Lancashire
I haven't been putting as many videos up of my music and the synths as I would like to but that is because I am away from home, and subsequently all my gear, while I am studying at University in Preston. Anyway as a secondary thing to the usual synth videos I thought I would share a few videos covering my other passion in the world of music... records and indeed hunting for them. I'm not some super digger and these aren't secret spots or anything but I thought I would show them off to anyone interested, as while I have seen quite a few digging videos from the USA and Canada the UK seems to be chronically under represented.
This video covers Preston's covered market and its one remaining true record shop, Action Records.
The chap on Preston market sets up his stall every Tuesday and Thursday and also sells fishing equipment (so you will be able to track down the stall by heading for the fishing rods). On this occasion he didn't actually turn up on the Tuesday though so we headed back on the Thursday to check out his stall and complete this video.
Thanks to Aaron for acting as a digging partner and Tom for his stellar camera work.
Respect to BlizzardOfTheCoast for giving me the idea in the first place and discussing records to the breaking point of the human mind.
Shouts to the AAA Crew -- Martin, Ant, Squatski, AJ, Hailon etc. etc.
