Hambleton is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Wyre, in Lancashire, England, sitting beside the estuary of the River Wyre on the Fylde coast close to Morecambe Bay. The flat coastal landscape of salt marsh and mudflats gives wide estuary views and supports notable birdlife, making it popular with walkers and birdwatchers.
Historically the settlement grew from agriculture and small‑scale maritime activity; today it remains largely rural with farms and a number of residents who commute to nearby towns such as Fleetwood, Poulton‑le‑Fylde and Lancaster. The village retains a quiet, low‑key character and a local community feel, with scattered historic buildings that reflect its long coastal and agricultural past.
