About

Squires Gate ward occupies the southeastern edge of Blackpool, bordering the town of Lytham St Annes. The area is defined by its mix of residential streets, light industrial estates, and significant transport links. Blackpool Airport is a central feature here, providing a distinct character separate from the seafront tourist core. The ward also contains Stanley Park, one of the town's largest green spaces with a boating lake and sports facilities.

The residential areas consist largely of interwar and post-war housing, offering a quieter alternative to central Blackpool. The geography includes the flat, coastal plain typical of the Fylde, with the residential areas situated inland from the Ribble Estuary.
