Wreck trek marker flag with Fleetwood ahead

Organised by the Fleetwood RNLI this escorted walk is out on the sands to the disused Wyre light and is a round trip of 4 miles with some wading through gullies.
The light was built in 1840 and was designed by the blind Irish Engineer Alexander Mitchell. In 1948 the lighthouse was destroyed by fire.
