About

Clifton ward occupies the southernmost section of Blackpool's urban area, bordering the town of St Annes. The district is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of interwar and post-war housing, with some local shopping parades serving the community. Its layout is more spacious than central Blackpool, featuring numerous cul-de-sacs and avenues.

The area is anchored by the large Stanley Park, which lies just outside its northern boundary, providing extensive green space. A defining characteristic is the presence of the Blackpool Victoria Hospital, a major regional facility situated within the ward. The residential streets are quiet, with the main through traffic concentrated on Waterloo Road and Stonyhill Avenue.
