Ansdell and Fairhaven form a compact coastal ward in the Fylde district of Lancashire, tucked between Lytham St Annes and Blackpool. The neighbourhood combines Victorian and early‑20th‑century seaside architecture with more recent housing, and benefits from a pleasant promenade, pocket parks and a local railway station offering easy links to Blackpool and Preston.
Historically the area grew up with the expansion of the Lytham St Annes resort, and today the economy is largely based on small shops, hospitality and services for a significant retired population. It remains popular with walkers and birdwatchers along the Fylde coast, has active community groups and clubs, and offers a quieter, residential seaside character while sitting close to larger visitor attractions and golf courses.
