PRESTON MANOR

Three photographs all taken on the same day, 13 April 1935. The stables and the two cottages, seen here, were removed in the following year when the roadway was widened opposite South Road. When the Stanford family occupied the Manor their butler lived in one of these cottages. Compare these photographs with those on previous pages, particularly the large one, circa 1914. From these it is evident that there had been an earlier widening of Preston Road in this vicinity, probably in 1928, when the Preston Park railings were removed.
