Agbrigg
Agbrigg is a suburb of the city of Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England.
== History ==
The village of Agbrigg was historically within the parish of Sandal Magna and a large area of present-day Agbrigg was common land and can be seen on older maps as being referred to as 'Sandal Common'. The common was built upon by the 18th century and the area expanded predominately in the Victorian era to form the suburb seen today.〔Petyt, A. (1998) ''The History of the parish of Sandal Magna, West Yorkshire, England. ''Accessed 20 March 2014. URL:

〕 The name 'Agbrigg' was afforded to the ''wapentake'' (a sub-division of a Riding - the term becoming obsolete from around 1900)〔Hinson, C (2014) ''Definitions of the terms used to describe areas of land and habitation in the county of Yorkshire. ''Accessed 20 March 2014. URL: http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/Misc/Definitions/AreaDefinitions.html#anchor250911〕 which had upper and lower divisions; the latter spanning parishes of Batley, Crofton, Dewsbury, Ardsley (East and West), Featherstone, Methley, Mirfield, Newland, Normanton, Rothwell, Sandal, Thornhill, Wakefield and Warmfield.〔House of Commons (1811) ''Abstract of the answers and returns made pursuant to an Act passed in the fifty-first year of His Majesty King George III, intituled, "An Act for taking an account of the population of Great Britain, and of the increase or diminution thereof" : preliminary observations, enumeration abstract, parish register abstract, 1811'' Accessed 20 March 2014 URL: http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=6wUSAAAAYAAJ&dq=lower+division+of+Agbrigg+wapentake,+West+Riding&source=gbs_navlinks_s〕 Once the wapentake disappeared, the name was used for a registration district (Lower Agbrigg registration district) from 1 January 1939 to 1 April 1974 when this registration district became part of the Wakefield registration district.〔Langston, B. (1996) ''LOWER AGBRIGG REGISTRATION DISTRICT. ''Accessed 20 March 2014. URL: http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/lower%20agbrigg.html〕 At the start of the 20th century the village Agbrigg was absorbed into the city and became one of the city's southern suburbs.
