About

Croft Baker ward occupies a central stretch of the North East Lincolnshire coastline, encompassing a significant portion of the Cleethorpes resort. The area is defined by its long, sandy beach and the prominent Cleethorpes Pier extending into the Humber estuary. Inland, the ward contains a mix of residential streets, local shopping parades, and green spaces like the Cleethorpes Country Park, which provides a contrast to the developed seafront.

The ward's character is heavily shaped by its coastal tourism function, with seafront attractions, amusement arcades, and promenade gardens. A notable landmark is the historic Kingsway tram shelter, a preserved example of the resort's transport heritage. Residential areas primarily consist of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, alongside some more modern developments, serving a mix of permanent residents and seasonal visitors.
