Blue Plaques are commemorative signs typically placed on buildings to signify that a notable person once lived or worked there, or that a historically important event occurred on the site. They serve to connect present-day locations with their historical significance, educating the public and celebrating heritage. The plaques around Fleetwood are provided by Wyre Council, with Blackpool Civic Trust providing for the Blackpool area, followed by Lytham St Annes Civic Society / Fylde Borough Council for Lytham, St Annes.
