About Fishwick
What are the main landmarks in Fishwick?
The list runs to churches. Museum of Lancashire heads the entries recorded for Fishwick, followed by St Mary's Church, St Joseph's Church and St Luke's Church, each carried on the register under Preston's name. A Former Unitarian Chapel and a Seventh Day Adventist Church appear alongside them.
One further name, Rascals, closes the record. Nothing here amounts to a visitor circuit; the entries are working buildings and the museum, set among Preston's streets.
What is the history of Fishwick?

What survives is a list of names. St Mary's Church, St Joseph's Church and St Luke's Church are set down under Preston, together with a Former Unitarian Chapel and a Seventh Day Adventist Church.
The Museum of Lancashire is the one entry of that kind.
