Historic Fleetwood building deemed unsafe has finally been demolished.
A crumbling building that stood in Fleetwood for more than a century has been flattened.
A gaping hole is all that’s left from where Lynn’s Diner operated from - a popular cafe for locals and truck drivers when the port operated the ro-ro ferries.
The building, believed to date from the mid to late 19th century and one of the town’s oldest, was unstable with cracks in the brick work and clear subsidence.
The section of Dock Street was cordoned off in 2023 while scaffolding was erected to support the structure. Wyre Council said it needed to act in the interests of public safety.
