Wigland is a small, quietly rural civil parish in Cheshire West and Chester, England, set on the fertile Cheshire plain. It is characterised by gently rolling farmland, hedgerows and narrow lanes rather than a dense village centre, so the landscape and agricultural pattern dominate the experience of the place.
Locally the economy and community life revolve around farming, scattered cottages and traditional farm buildings, with a low, close‑knit population and a strong sense of rural continuity. Its historic roots sit within the long parish system of Cheshire, and the area is popular for country walks and equestrian activities for those seeking a tranquil, pastoral setting not far from larger local towns.
