Hambleton is a small village and civil parish in the district of Wyre, in Lancashire, England, lying on the estuary of the River Wyre on the coastal plain of the Fylde. Its setting by tidal mudflats and salt marshes that flow into Morecambe Bay makes it notable for birdlife, coastal walks and a quiet sailing and boating scene.
Characteristically rural, Hambleton blends farms and traditional cottages with a close-knit parish community; many residents commute to nearby towns such as Fleetwood, Poulton-le-Fylde, Preston or Blackpool. Historically linked to agriculture and local maritime trades, the village today combines conservation interest, modest tourism and everyday village life.
