Excerpt from The History of the Parish of Lytham in the County of Lancaster Lytham as a parish does not contain very much that is of special interest to the local historian except the records relating to the ancient Monastic Cell and its somewhat singular Church history; unlike the rest of the Fylde district it has no tale to tell of old houses and old families, the Romans have left no trace of their occupation, and even during the Civil Wars the parish was not much affected - but for all this I venture to hope that much of the materials now collected will be of value as recording what is known about the parish, and as serving to complete the history of the country known as the Fylde.
