Probably from the English surname Rigby. This surname is connected with Northern England, especially Lancashire, and is derived from a historical spelling of the village now called Ribby, located between Preston and Blackpool. This place was first recorded as Rigbi in the Domesday Book (AD 1086). Further information would be welcomed on who or what this street was named after.
Rigby Close off Indiana Avenue was proposed by John Williamson and accepted at the Health and Environmental Services Committee, Monday, 11th August, 1997.
