• Notes

  Little Wigston is now (1928) a copyhold of the Manor of Rowington in Warwickshire, which formerly belonged to the Abbey of Reading. There are a few cottages belonging to the Hamlet in Smockington Hollow which is situated about a quarter of a mile East of Little Wigston. The Hamlet itself lies so low as to be scarcely discernable till one is close on it. It contains four substantial farmhouses and seven cottages, and exhibits the appearance of a neat rural square.
