About Wigan
Situated in Greater Manchester, Wigan is a town with a proud history and a character all of its own. Its roots stretch back to Roman times, when a settlement known as Coccium was established along the road between Chester and York. Through the medieval period Wigan grew steadily, becoming a recognised borough as far back as 1246. Like much of the north west, the town was shaped significantly by the Industrial Revolution, with coal mining and textile manufacturing driving its growth for generations. Wigan's mining heritage is perhaps best captured in George Orwell's 1937 work "The Road to Wigan Pier," which brought the town international attention and remains one of its most recognisable cultural associations. Today, Wigan balances that industrial legacy with a lively town centre, strong community spirit, and a genuine warmth that locals are rightly proud of.
When it comes to things to do in Wigan, Haigh Woodland Park is one of the most popular destinations, covering over 250 acres of woodland, gardens, and open green space. The park sits on the grounds of the former Haigh Hall estate and is a favourite with walkers, families, and cyclists throughout the year. The Leeds and Liverpool Canal also passes through the borough, offering scenic towpath routes that connect the town to the wider waterway network and provide a peaceful escape whatever the weather.
