Greenhalgh-with-Thistleton is a small, rural civil parish in the borough of Fylde, in Lancashire, England, set on the flat agricultural plain a few miles inland from the Fylde coast. The area is made up of scattered hamlets and farms rather than a single built-up centre, so hedged fields, lanes and the occasional stone cottage give it a quiet, open character while being within easy reach of larger towns such as Blackpool and Poulton-le-Fylde.
Historically and economically the parish has a strong farming tradition, and that rural heritage is still visible in the field patterns and older buildings dotted around the lanes. Social life tends to be low-key and locally focused, with many residents commuting to nearby centres for work and relying on neighbouring villages and market towns for shops, services and community activities.
