  1. Cleveleys (with its neighbouring town of Thornton, collectively known as Thornton-Cleveleys) is a town on the Fylde Coast of Lancashire, England, about 4 miles north of Blackpool and 2 miles south of Fleetwood. It is part of the Borough of Wyre.

    Mentioned in the Domesday Book William the Conqueror surveyors recorded "Torenton". Cleveleys was formerly called "Ritherholm" and that name almost certainly derived from the rivulet that flowed into the sea there. Thornton is mentioned in the Domesday Book but its much younger neighbour, Cleveleys, a bustling seaside resort as we know it today, does contain buildings dating back to the late eighteenth century however was largely developed in the 19th century around a hotel owned by a Mr Cleveleys. Incidentally, Cleveleys means woodland clearing near a cliff or bank.

    The two towns are linked by Victoria Road, and the Blackpool to Fleetwood tram line runs through the centre of Cleveleys. The nearest station is Poulton-le-Fylde railway station. Cleveleys is separated from Fleetwood by Rossall School


  2. It's just under 6 miles and should take around 15 minutes to drive it.
