The photographs in this site are only a fraction of those you can see in the archives at

www.billinge-history.co.uk .

Take a look at this site for another perspective of Billinge http://www.mylittlewww.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/history.htm

If your appetite for Billinge History has been wetted , please take an in-depth look. There are links in the archives to Billinge Families.

From http://sthelens-connect.net/sitefiles/billinge-history.pdf you can download an earlier book as a PDF file with photos inserted in the text - many thanks DaveWhitmore.

We can send you a CD with all our photographs (about 1000) in 300 ppi and the written text of the book. You could then format high quality photo pages as you decide, insert them wherever you choose, and get the book bound yourself. We hope to upload the book with all the photo pages included some time in the future.

You can email us by clicking here and if you have any inquiries.
