Preston-next-Faversham

Preston-next-Faversham is an area of Faversham in Kent, England. Historically it was a separate village and parish. It became a civil parish in 1866, but in 1894 was divided into three civil parishes: Preston Within. North Preston Without and South Preston Without. All three civil parishes were absorbed into Faversham in 1935.[1]

The ecclesiastical parish remains. The parish church of St Catherine is of Norman origin.[2]
