Higher Kinnerton is a small village in Flintshire, Wales, perched close to the England–Wales border between Chester and Wrexham. It occupies a pleasant rural setting of rolling farmland and lanes, making it popular with people seeking village life while working in nearby towns and industrial areas; its position close to the border also gives it a cross‑border, commuter feel.
Historically rooted in agriculture, the village now combines older cottages with more recent housing and retains a strong local community identity, with amenities such as a village hall, pubs and recreational clubs typical of rural Welsh villages. Its quiet lanes and surrounding countryside are well used for walking and community events, and the village benefits economically from easy access to larger employment centres and local retail and light industry in the region.
