Preston Fishergate Hill railway station
Preston Fishergate Hill was a railway station at the bottom of Fishergate Hill in Preston. It formed the northeastern terminus of the West Lancashire Railway which built a direct railway link between Southport and Preston. The station was also known as Preston West Lancashire Station (OS 1:2500 1st Ed map).
==History==
The terminus opened in 1882 but closed to passengers on 16 July 1900 when the West Lancashire Railway was absorbed by its rival, the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (Biddle, 1989). From that date, the new owners directed passenger traffic to the joint L&YR and LNWR station closer to the centre of town (Cotterall, 1982).
Thereafter, the station remained open for goods traffic until 25 January 1965 but saw occasional passenger specials during the Preston Guild which is held every 20 years.
For many years after closure to passengers the premises were let by a firm of provender merchants for use as offices.〔A photograph can be found in Greville and Holt (1960), p. 199〕 The station has since been demolished and housing now occupies the site.
