Anchorsholme

About

Anchorsholme is a residential ward located in the northern part of Blackpool, bordered by Cleveleys and the Irish Sea. The area features a mix of housing, including detached homes, semis, and bungalows, with some modern developments alongside older properties. Anchorsholme Park and the nearby coastline provide green spaces and walking routes, while local amenities like shops and schools cater to daily needs.

The ward is known for its proximity to Anchorsholme Beach, a quieter stretch of coastline compared to Blackpool’s central areas. The Anchorsholme Lane area serves as a hub for businesses and services, including supermarkets and healthcare facilities. Public transport links connect the ward to central Blackpool and surrounding towns, making it a practical location for commuters. The community is largely family-oriented, with a focus on local events and neighbourhood initiatives.
