Old Preston Manor House was demolished some time after 1890. The only portion left in 1932 to form any judgement of the whole was the porch-way forming part of a house next to the Spiritualist Church, in Torquay Road then - a fine specimen.

The house adjoining the church in Torquay Road has a modern shop frontage but it is possible that the porch survives inside or to the rear of the building?
