Brindle is a small village and civil parish of the borough of Chorley, Lancashire, England. It is in the centre of a triangle between Preston, Blackburn, and Chorley. The scenic countryside has little industry. Brindle is also one of the most affluent areas in Lancashire [1], with average earnings over 33% higher than the national average.

Brindle is home to the Cavendish Arms pub, Saint James's Church of England church, tennis courts and a number of trails and bridle paths. As a beautifully kept parish offering excellent links to nearby towns including business centres such as Preston, Bolton, Chorley and Manchester. Brindle could be described as a commuter village although the village still retains a strong sense of local identity.^{[citation needed]}
