About

Little Bispham and Anchorsholme form a primarily residential area in northern Blackpool, situated between the coastal road and the B5261. The housing is a mix of interwar and post-war semis and bungalows, with some modern developments. Local shops and services are concentrated along Warley Road and Anchorsholme Lane, catering to daily needs. The layout is defined by long, straight roads leading toward the sea, creating a grid-like pattern inland.

The area's defining feature is its expansive green space, Anchorsholme Park, which includes sports pitches, a bowling green, and a children's play area. The coastline here is characterised by a concrete sea wall and promenade, quieter than Blackpool's central stretches. A notable landmark is the pumping station near the end of Anchorsholme Lane, which houses one of the UK's major coastal water drainage outfalls, a functional piece of infrastructure essential to the Fylde coast.
