The Workhouse Preston Lancashire (K800i test)
Preston, Lancashire New Workhouse at Fulwood
A new workhouse has been opened for the purposes of the Preston union.
The building has cost between £40,000 and £50,000 and has been
designed by Mr. Leigh Hall of Bolton. The site is at Fulwood, about a
mile from Preston. Hitherto there have been five workhouses in the
union, but the new establishment will do away with them all.

I am really glad to have seen this picture, I have a K700i myself and have watched the upgrades come onto the market - the K750i and now the K800i, I wish I had one.

was very pleased with the deal I got; ended up with the phone, my monthly contract reduced and £80 cash into the bargain! Even though I'd been pleased with the 750 and waiting to see what the N93 has to offer, I couldn't miss out on the deal and my other contract is due up towards the end of the year so maybe the N93 will end up as the 800i's companion?
cheers

It became Sharoe Green hospital which has now closed. Think the building is now offices.
