Wigtwizzle

Wigtwizzle is a hamlet in the civil parish of Bradfield, in South Yorkshire, England.[5] The name derives from an Anglo-Saxon owner, Wicga, and means Wicga's land at the confluence of two streams, (Allas Lane Dike, and Lee Lane Dike, both of which flow into Broomhead Reservoir).[13] It was believed to have been built in 1610, but was demolished in 1935 and the stone used partly to build the local reservoirs of Broomhead and More Hall.[6] It is now part of the civil parish of Bradfield, under which the ten-year censuses are recorded.[18] The land to the west of the hamlet is known as Wightwizzle Common and extended the 3 miles (5 km) to Howden Edge, which is the boundary between Derbyshire and Yorkshire.
