Pharos is a coastal ward in the borough of Wyre, in Lancashire, England, covering part of the town of Fleetwood. It sits on the low-lying north-west Lancashire coast with wide views over the Irish Sea and Morecambe Bay and fronts the Wyre estuary; the area still feels shaped by its maritime location and by links across the water to Knott End-on-Sea.
Historically tied to fishing, shipbuilding and dock activity, the ward mixes Victorian townscape and promenades with modern regeneration efforts, independent shops and working quays. Local life leans on seafront tourism, the fish trade and birdwatching on the bay, while community facilities and affordable housing give the area a socially mixed, resilient character.
