Preston, Devon

At low tide it is possible to walk between Preston Sands and the adjoining beaches at Paignton.

The entrance to the platform (now bricked up with grey breeze blocks) can be found on the footpath that runs in a northerly direction below the railway bridge at the bottom of Seaway Road.

The main road through Preston is the A3022 (formerly A379) with Stagecoach service 12 operating every 10 minutes between Brixham and Newton Abbot.

On the edge of the district is Oldway Mansion, built for the Singer family and later home to the Torbay Council offices.

After an aborted attempt to sell the building, the Mansion remains in Council hands but as of November 2020 is closed to the public.
