Borough of Wyre

The landscape around Wyre is a low-lying Lancashire plain shaped by the River Wyre, which has influenced both settlement patterns and the local economy. This borough stretches from farmland and river valleys inland to the Irish Sea coast, bringing together rural communities with the resort towns of Cleveleys and Fleetwood. Fleetwood was founded as a planned town in the 1830s by Peter Hesketh-Fleetwood and developed into an important fishing port; its maritime character remains central to the town. The Wyre Estuary and coastal frontage give the district a markedly different feel from inland Lancashire.
