Ойын-сауық

I took a guided tour by Fleetwood RNLI to the ruined Wyre Light off the north coast of Fleetwood, on the southern edge of Morecambe Bay.

    Always more than just a walk from you Stephen. Fantastic weather and plenty of company too. Hope everyone had sunscreen on, (It's the nurse in me). Not a walk for wearing your best trainers for as the salt water will destroy them. Would love to see more walks of this type if possible.

    This thing used to fascinate me, whenever I went out to Fleetwood to visit my family. I personally think it should be restored, as I believe I read that it was one of only two remaining lighthoses of that design.

    Fleetwood was once reputed to be the only port in the World with 3 lighthouses to mark the same channel. I was born in Pharos St with the tallest lighthouse in front of the house. Used to dig bait on Marine beach and quite often a guy wearing speedos would run past us saying he was going for a swim at Wyre Light. The original village of Singleton is reputed to be out in the sands somewhere off Rossall Point, originally Ross Hall, but rising sea levels forced the villagers to abandon it and create the village in land where it is now. A Roman port town is also supposed to be out there but Im not sure that isnt just myth. When you look at the sand flats around Fleetwood to Blackpool, you could well imagine costal erosion and villages or other small encampments being slowly lost to the rising sea.
