Welcome
to Freckleton
Freckleton is located in the Fylde, Lancashire,
England, UK, just north of the river Ribble. It is one of the oldest
Fylde villages. Historically, Freckleton’s main industry is
agriculture but there was a time when it was sea port with boat
building and sail making.
The Freckleton web site is a showcase for the
village. It provides information about local history, the shops,
pubs, restaurants, council, businesses, facilities, services and
amenities that are available locally.
There are also pictures from around the village
as well as information about the Lancashire Coastal Way and links
to everything we can find of relevance to Freckletonians.
Please use the menu at
the top of the page to navigate the site. |

News
FBC Dog Control Order - 30.06.09
It should be noted that Fylde Borough Council (FBC) have not yet completed the process required to issue the proposed Dog Control Order. The review meeting is being held in September. More details can be found on the FBC web site. The statement in the Parish Newsletter that the FBC 'will' shortly be introducing a dog control order is therefore assumed to be a belief or an aspiration, rather than a statement of fact?
BAES Development - 24.06.09
The planning appeal by BAES has been rejected. The full report can be found <here>
RAF Freckleton -23.06.09
We have recently discovered that there used to be an RAF Freckleton where medical training was performed. There was a Spitfire on the gate.
