Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox UK place Great Wigborough is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Great and Little Wigborough in the Colchester borough of Essex, England.

The place-name 'Wigborough' first appears in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appears as Wicgebergha and Wighebergha. The name means 'Wicga's hill or barrow'.[1]

In 1951 the parish had a population of 181.[2] On 1 April 1953 the parish was abolished and merged with Little Wigborough to form "Great and Little Wigborough".[3]

Great Wigborough is represented at the lowest tier of governance by Winstred Hundred Parish Council.[4]

St Stephen's church dates from the 14th century and is a Grade II* listed building. Heavily damaged in the Colchester earthquake of 1884, it was extensively restored.[5]
