Is Marton Fold a part of Marton? I am having some difficulty using bustimes.org to trace the number 5 journey shown above if so. There is a district called Fishers Field near to the Halfway House.

I believe so. I didn't use Bus Times on this particular occasion but as has been discussed many a time before, Bus Times seems to make up it's own regions/districts. There is a playing field called Fishers Field on Highfield Road but that's all the information I can see.

Please see attached for a better understanding.

Thamks for that clarification. Incidentally, do bustimes.org receive area information from a different organisation?

We next board the 2238 Blackpool Transport service 7 to St Annes (the bus stop by Ashton Gardens on Clifton Drive North) that arrives there at 2247 on Tuesday.
