Stanah is a suburban ward on the southern bank of the River Wyre estuary in the borough of Wyre, Lancashire, England, lying close to Thornton‑Cleveleys and a short distance from Fleetwood. Its setting mixes residential streets with stretches of foreshore and salt marsh, which give pleasant river views and pockets of green space used for walking, birdwatching and informal fishing.
Locally the area is characterised by a mix of post‑war and newer housing, small shops and light industrial units that serve the coastal towns nearby. There are still echoes of the area’s maritime and fishing connections in the local economy and community, which supports clubs, allotments and village‑style social life, with straightforward road and bus links into places such as Poulton‑le‑Fylde and Blackpool.
