About

Ashton ward sits on the western coast of the Fylde peninsula, directly bordering the Irish Sea. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing developments and older properties, with a significant portion of its land used for agriculture. Its coastline features a long stretch of sandy beach and a prominent coastal defence system, including a concrete sea wall and groynes. The River Ribble estuary lies to its immediate south.

The ward contains the village of Lytham St Annes' Fairhaven area, with its lake and windmill. Much of the inland area consists of open fields and golf courses, with Ashton Park being a notable green space. The local economy is supported by small retail outlets and services catering to residents, with less focus on tourism compared to neighbouring wards.
