Wigton
Wigton is a market community in Cumbria, England. Historically in Cumberland, it exists simply outside the Lake District in the borough of Allerdale. Wigton goes to the centre of the Solway Plain, between the Caldbeck Fells and also the Solway coastline. It is offered by Wigton train station on the Cumbrian Coast Line, as well as the A596 roadway to Workington. The community of Silloth-on-Solway lies twelve miles to the west, beyond Abbeytown. Wigton today is a prospering market town, with livestock public auctions being held regularly at Hopes Auction Company. The primary employer is Innovia Films. The town has its very own secondary school, called The Nelson Thomlinson College, which is a well-performing comprehensive with close links to the Innovia factory. In 2004 the community was the initial negotiation in the United Kingdom to enforce a time limit on teenagers under the age of 16. It remained in place for 2 weeks, and its purpose was to reduce the amount of vandalism in the community centre. It complied with nightly criminal damage campaigns, that included shattered shop fronts, as well as scare tactics of senior participants of the community. The time limit attracted national focus, with the local high school getting sees from agencies such as Sky News. It had some effect, with less vandalism happening since.
