Footbridge opened in 2005. It is named after Rev Samuel Wathen Wigg who is credited with founding the Northampton Saints Rugby Club when, as the curate at St James Parish Church, he took the boys' improvement class and started a rugby team called Northampton St James which later became known as “the Saints”. The bridge is painted in the club colours.
