Where to make a quick point (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

preston

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'where to' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'a quick point' is the wordplay.
'a quick' becomes 'presto' (I've seen this before).
'point' becomes 'n' (North).
'presto'+'n'='PRESTON'

'make' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for preston that I've seen before include "English city" , "City in Lancashire" , "Town on the Ribble" , "city (as of 2002)" , "Administrative centre of Lancashire" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
