Wigston is a South Leicestershire town in the Borough of Oadby & Wigston standing approx. 5 miles south of Leicester city centre. With Knighton forming the northern border and Oadby to the east, the A5199 leaves Wigston to the south providing access to some of the county's most delightful countryside with a number of charming villages nearby. By the middle ages, the village of Wichingstone had become known as Wigston Two Steeples or Two Spires as it was unusually the home of 2 spired churches known today as All Saints & St. Wistans.

The village has grown into a thriving town in recent years with a number of housing developments spreading in all directions around the busy town centre with a choice of Banks, public houses and restaurants, and a comprehensive selection of shops.
Wigston is popular today with local buyers and those from further afield due in part to the extremely good variety of housing stock, varied leisure facilities, its proximity to Leicester, its ease of access to the motorway network and the choice of railway stations allowing travel to London in a little over an hour.
