Upon his return on the first game of the 2010–11 season, Ashbee scored the second goal in Hull ‘s 2–0 victory over Swansea City.

In January 2011, Ashbee signed for Preston North End, managed by former Hull manager Phil Brown, after handing in a transfer request to then Hull City manager Nigel Pearson. Ashbee was offered a 1-year contract extension at Hull, but wanted to sign a 2-year contract, which Preston offered him. He went on to make 19 appearances for Preston during the season, but could not prevent his club from being relegated. Ashbee was named club captain of Preston in June 2011.

He was diagnosed with an osteochondral defects, which is a degenerative bone condition that affects his femur. To stimulate bone regrowth, he had to have fourteen holes drilled in his bone. His doctor warned him that the injury could have serious consequences for his career and his ability to walk. Ashbee spent four months on crutches and was out of commission for most of 2005-06.
