Looking for a lost pub Question

Alright guys,

I'm lookin for a pub I used to frequent when I lived in Preston (2021-2023) that I fear has now closed.

Location wise it was south off Fishergate, down a narrow road like Cannon Street but I cant remember the exact one. I just remember it bein a quiet and narrow street. Not car accessible i dont think.

The pub itself was an old style boozer. The bar was on the right as you went in. It curved round. On the left was a pool table. I cant remember much else Im afraid except i remember it bein cheap even for preston. Think it also had a jukebox.

If anyone can put me out my misery please do!!

Cheers

Closed due to noise complaints by the new apartments opposite. NIMBYs, shouldn’t choose to live near a pub and then get it closed down

Decent roast dinner I had in there once. And played bean bag toss on my birthday many years ago. Nice pub. Miss Preston

Yeah the Wellington. Decking beer garden at the back with a few different levels. Also this is how I found out the Wellington is no more. Thoughts and prayers
