About

Marsh Mill ward lies in the coastal borough of Wyre, centred on the Thornton-Cleveleys area. The ward is defined by its position between the River Wyre estuary and the urban expanse of Blackpool to the south. Its landscape is predominantly residential, featuring a mix of interwar and post-war housing estates, with local retail concentrated along Fleetwood Road North. The area functions largely as a residential suburb.

The ward's namesake is the prominent Marsh Mill, a historic tower windmill built in 1794. This landmark stands near the Wyre estuary, with surrounding pathways offering views across the coastal marshes. The area's character is shaped by this flat, low-lying geography, with drainage channels and green corridors threading through the built environment. It provides a quieter residential alternative to the busier centres nearby.
