When it comes to fast food outlets Preston became something of a market leader in May 1965 when the first overseas branch of Kentucky Fried Chicken opened at No. 92 Fishergate sharing a frontage with the Wimpy Bar that in time became the Popinere Cafe (pictured, inset)before KFC expanded into the neighbouring space.
Fishergate has always been a popular place for cafes and restaurants with the KFC’s famous neighbour the Brucciani café, a delightful place for coffee and ice cream since 1932. While another cafe destined to remain in the mind of Preston folk was the Kardomah, which was run by John Victor Christian for 40 years until his retirement in 1966. Thousands of Preston people having popped in for a chat, a cuppa or lunch through the years.

Amys creativity and stamina are par excellence, and her blended background in theater and visual arts lends itself perfectly to Guild Halls interdisciplinary framework.

The rolling countryside of New England is dotted with rugged, 100+ year old farmhouses. Houses big enough for the large families that were common at that time. These days, many of these historic homes are for sale.
Fairly affordable (compared to the price of an in-town house of the same size), they are often a great option for first-time home buyers and for people with large families. Multiple living rooms, dining room, and a bunch of bedrooms.
However, sometimes they hide a shocking secret.
Such is the case with one particular house in Guildhall, Vermont.
According to CNN, up until 1969 the house at 43 Courthouse Drive was home to the Essex County Jail!
