Venue should be Public Hall (not Town Hall).

Ticket stub at official site

Preston has a Guild Hall, and had a Public Hall (demolished 1989). Concerts were also held at the Guild Hall. However, I believe the Town Hall was only ever local government offices.

The Preston Public Hall is actually still standing, though the "venue" portion of the facility was demolished in 1989.

Here's a photo of the building before the demolition of the huge back portion of the buidling:



Here's a link to a video of the Prestion Public Hall just before demolition:
