Preston’s most famous monument was left flat out during the Bank Holiday weekend.

Fishergate Bollard had once again been rolled off his perch at the end of the city’s main shopping street.

Costing £300-a-time to replace the bollard, which has a cult following on social media, was once again dislodged by a driver.

There was no evidence of a damaged car in sight on Bank Holiday Monday morning when Blog Preston visited the scene.
