Bourne is an electoral ward in the borough of Wyre, in Lancashire in north‑west England. It sits on the flat coastal plain of the Fylde, close to seaside towns such as Fleetwood and Blackpool and within easy reach of the Mudflats and saltmarsh of Morecambe Bay, so the landscape is a mix of suburban streets and pockets of open green space.
The ward is largely residential, with a local economy based on small shops, services and commuter links into nearby employment centres; community life is kept lively by schools, parish groups and local clubs. Historically the area has ties to agriculture and the maritime activity of the Wyre estuary, and today it combines long‑standing neighbourhoods with a steady inflow of people drawn by the coastal setting and transport connections.
