Billinge Chapel End is a civil parish in the Metropolitan Borough of St. Helens, in Merseyside, lying on the high ground around Billinge Hill. Historically part of Lancashire, the area still feels like a village with lanes, local pubs and community clubs, and the hill gives panoramic views across north-west England on clear days.
The locality has a past shaped by coal mining and quarrying but today is largely residential, with many people commuting to nearby centres such as Wigan, Liverpool and Manchester. Its mix of greenbelt countryside and suburban housing, together with parish activities and conservation interest, gives it a distinct local identity.
