This page explains and provides links to The Wigston Town Centre Masterplan Area Action Plan Baseline Report.

The Wigston Town Centre Masterplan Area Action Plan Baseline Report presents the first of a series of stages that led to the production of the area action plan. It also develops a thorough understanding of Wigston and presents an in-depth evidence base upon which to move forward and if necessary support the area action plan through examination.

The Lanes are some of the last remnants of its mediaeval past. Today, Wigston is almost indistinct as a settlement in its own right and only small areas of open land, mostly parks remain to separate it from Leicester to the north. To the south and west, Wigston's outer limits are defined by the railway line, whilst the eastern side is mostly made up of more recent housing developments.

The built form within the town centre is relatively compact with smaller retail and residential units along Long Street, Leicester Road and Moat Street. These buildings provide a good frontage onto the street some displaying high-quality architectural features.
