Breck is an electoral ward in the borough of Wyre in north‑west Lancashire, England, forming part of the suburban fringe of the Fylde coast. It sits amid mainly residential streets with small shopping parades and pockets of green space, and is within easy reach of nearby coastal towns such as Fleetwood and the seaside resort of Blackpool.
The ward has a mixed housing stock - from Victorian terraces and interwar homes to more modern estates - and a community made up of families, commuters and retirees. Local life revolves around neighbourhood amenities, community groups and the wider local economy of retail, services and coastal industries; its history and growth are tied to the wider development of the Fylde coast and the transport links that shaped the area in the 19th and 20th centuries.
