In 1310 William Rufus held a messuage and 46 acres of land of Walter Wigan, in which is to be sought the origin of WIGGONS MANOR, later found in Cople. It is first so called in 1506, and follows the same descent as Woodend (q.v.), mention of it by its distinctive name being still found in the 18th and early 19th centuries.
