Number Two was taken from Western Road but the others, not a clue unless the cinema is the Duke of Yorks.

At a guess:

1) Ship Street

2) Elm Grove

3) The seafront, where the Kingswest is now

4) London Road (the clue is in the Preston Circus caption)

5) The seafront by where the King Alfred is?

Hither (sometimes Thither)
The bottom one is for that week in the 40s when we thought the nazis were going to win so we had a big welcome parade and all grew moustaches.
We felt pretty silly when the Brits won, i can tell you.

No.2 is where they are building that new shop by the clock tower and that little lane you go through to get to the albion shop from western road.

Mad looking church.
