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 selection of day to day facilities, public houses and restaurants, the town centre has a good selection of shops..
