This is probably the most popular of Winckley Square Guided Walks: Winckley Square In the Beginning
Join Steve Harrison to hear the stories of the Former Residents – famous and infamous. Winckley Square is more than the gardens and the buildings that surround them. It's also about the lives of the people who populated this area for over 200 years. Men and women who had a profound impact on Preston and far beyond. Our guides will introduce you to characters from the past and share their stories. Starting with the vision for the Square and the first house in 1799 we will encounter real people who made history.
You can just turn up but places are limited so to be assured of a place better to book in advance on Eventbrite
