Wigginton is a village and civil parish in the unitary authority of the City of York in North Yorkshire, England.

[2] Wigginton is bordered on the east by the township of Haxby, the A1237 York Outer ring Road to the south, the B1363 to the west and open farmland to the north.

[3] The village was named in the Domesday Book and noted as belonging to the cathedral church of St Peter in York.

The first recorded owners of the manor were the Askebys, who may have been connected with the neighbouring village of Haxby, and of Roger de Haxbey, who owned nearby land during the reign of Edward I. Hugh de Moresby, Lord of Moresby in Cumberland, was in possession of the manor of Wigginton in 1337.

Through inheritance and marriage the manor passed to Anne Pickering and her second husband, Sir Henry Knyvett.

As of May 2019 Haxby and Wigginton Ward is represented by Councillors Ian Cuthbertson, Andrew Hollyer and Edward Pearson, all of whom are members of the Liberal Democrat Party.

The nearby town of Haxby now merges with Wigginton though the old Parish Boundary map still shows the dividing line.

The boundary at this point continues northward cutting across Windsor Drive near Ripley Grove and then out into the countryside.

Wigginton has a number of businesses, a garden centre, two farm shops, hairdressers and chiropodists, a nursing home, a village store and three public houses.

[11] Yorkshire Coastliner operate the Rawcliffe to Monks Cross and Osbaldwick bus service which stops in the village.
