About

Little Billing is a village and civil parish situated just northeast of Northampton, within the wider district of West Northamptonshire. The area is characterised by residential development and open farmland, with the River Nene forming part of its eastern boundary. It maintains a quiet, semi-rural atmosphere despite its proximity to the larger urban centre. The local community is served by a primary school and a village hall, with housing consisting largely of post-war estates and some older properties.

The landscape is gently undulating, featuring the expansive Little Billing Lakes, a series of former gravel pits now used for fishing and water sports. These lakes are a significant local feature, attracting walkers and anglers. The area's history is connected to its agricultural past and its development in the latter half of the 20th century. Public footpaths connect to surrounding countryside, including the Nene Way long-distance trail that follows the river.
