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. |

Fund Raiser - 31.01.10
Brian Porter is running the London Marathon in April to raise money for The Anthony Nolan Trust for Leukemia. He is also taking 20 students with him to provide massage (he says that he had to make sure he got a massage somehow!) Over the past few years he has known people who lost their lives to leukemia because a bone marrow donor could not be found: He has also seen the relief a transplant can bring. Currently, he knows two people who are waiting for a suitable donor. Please help Brian by making a donation. He has set up a charity giving page at Just Giving to make donating as easy as possible (please add the Gift Aid) but if people prefer to deal in cash, they can email him:
Takeaway Menu's - 09.12.09
We have observed that the various takeaways in the village are amongst the most frequently accessed pages on the site. Most of the downloadable menu's are now VERY out of date. Perhaps the customers of these establishments would like to suggest to the proprietors that it would be a good idea to send us a new menu?

RAF Freckleton
We have recently discovered that there used to be an RAF Freckleton where medical training was performed. There was a Spitfire on the gate. Does anyone know anything about it or better still have any pictures. Where was the station? We would love to put something on the site. Please contact us if you have any information.
