Handley is a village and civil parish in the unitary authority of Cheshire West and Chester and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. It is part of the local government ward of Tattenhall,[1] a larger settlement approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) to the east. The hamlet of Milton Green is to the north west of the village. The A41 road, which previously passed through the village now bypasses it, having been re-routed further to the east.

In the 2001 census Handley had a population of 149.[2] The census statistics have been combined with the neighbouring civil parishes of Chowley and Golborne David, and the figure was given as 227.[3] In the 2011 census these parishes were again combined, with the population recorded as 253.[4]
