Billingley is a village and civil parish in the Metropolitan Borough of Barnsley, in South Yorkshire, England, 7 miles (11 km) east of Barnsley. At the 2001 census it had a population of 177,[1] increasing to 210 at the 2011 Census.[2]

The name Billingley possibly derives from the Old English Billaingaslēah meaning 'wood or clearing of the people of Billa' or Bilhāmingaslēah meaning the 'wood or clearing of the people of Bilham'. Perhaps, it may simply derive from billinglēah meaning 'wood or clearing at the hill'.[3]
