Once Every Preston Guild

Preston Guild is held every 20 years, hence the expression 'Once every Preston Guild' for something that seldom happens.

The next Guild will be in 2012, and a new cycling and walking route is being created in celebration. The route will be called the Guild Wheel, and work has been ongoing down here at the docks for some months.

Section 1 from Penwortham Bridge to the Docks

There was already a riverside footpath, but it wasn't suitable for cycling.

See the Preston City Council website for more info about Guild Wheel 2012

More info about the Guild can be found at Preston Guild 2012


The 'Prestonian' will no doubt receive a lick of paint and a tidy-up to make sure she's smart and in good trim for the Guild.



This year's Riversway Festival will be held from from the 15th until the 17th of July, details will be posted on the festival's website when available. Booking forms and tidal times can be downloaded now at Preston Riversway Festival
