The Vulcan bomber has made what may be its final ever flight over Preston.

Prestonians looked skyward between 2.40pm to 2.55pm as the plane made the Northern leg of its farewell tour.

A final slight is now planned towards the end of October but the plane, which was introduced during the Cold War, delighted military fans.
