St John Rigby was born at Harrock Hall near Wrightington and is one of the Forty Martyrs of England & Wales. Lots of information on Wikipedia.
St John Rigby College on Gathurst Road is dedicated to him.
The Rigbye Arms at High Moor also bear his name but has a different spelling. The national shrine dedicated to him is at St Josephs, Wrightington.
