At the confluence of the relatively tiny Skippool Creek and the Wyre and along a small stretch of the riverside beside the Blackpool and Fleetwood Yacht Club, there are a number of wooden jetties and boat moorings and shacks together with a range of boats; old and new and some in a photogenic state of decay.
The Stanah Tramper Trail here leads around the Wyre Estuary Country Park and Hillylaid Pool to the east of Thornton.
