Medlar-with-Wesham

Medlar-with-Wesham is a civil parish and electoral ward situated in the Fylde borough of Lancashire. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing types from inter-war semis to more recent developments. Local commerce is centred along Station Road and the surrounding streets, providing essential day-to-day services for the community. The ward contains several small green spaces and playing fields that offer recreational areas for residents.

A key feature of the area is its position at the junction of two major railway lines, linking it directly to Preston and Blackpool. This transport connection has historically shaped its development. The local landscape is predominantly flat, typical of the Fylde plain, with agricultural land bordering the built-up areas. The community maintains a distinct identity separate from the larger neighbouring town of Kirkham.
