Upper Rawcliffe-with-Tarnacre lies in the Borough of Wyre in Lancashire, England, set on the flat agricultural plain of The Fylde. The landscape is low-lying and often criss-crossed by drainage ditches and field boundaries reflecting a once marshy character, with the nearby River Wyre shaping local topography; settlement is largely dispersed hamlets and farmsteads rather than a single compact village.
The area remains predominantly agricultural - mixed arable and livestock farms dominate - although many residents commute to nearby centres such as Garstang and Preston for work and services. Its quiet lanes, historic farm buildings and hedgerows give a strongly rural feel, and community life tends to be closely linked with neighbouring villages and parish activities, while the countryside attracts local birdlife and walkers.
