Leigh Park, Hampshire
Once the largest council estate in Europe, Leigh Park has a long tradition of chavness and could well be the origin of all Chavs apon this Earth. (were there any evidence that anyone’s moved out since 1959)
From the youngest creole-wearing babies collecting fag ends outside the chippie to the wrinkled hags in leggings pushing Netto trolleys home, Chav is and always has been at the heart of Leigh park.
On the outskirts of Ports-muff this top Chavtown offers the discerning Kev everything they might wish for.
For the teen-townie who hasn’t yet got their own council flat, theres plenty of chip shops, offies and newagents to hang round outside, though favourite spots include Point 7 and Park Parade, the towns main shopping precinct. This is the ideal place for shouting at old ladies, asking grown ups to buy you White Lightening and meeting and mating with other Parkies. Here you’ll find the main shops every chav needs to visit on the way home from the dole queue. For some everyday shoplifting and the latest Now album theres Woolworths and there’s New Look, Peacocks and Bewise for the less-brand conscious scum (the rest get their rip off Tommy Hilfiger from the market or a bloke down the Wheatsheaf) Plus theres Iceland, Kwiksave and Netto a short shopping-trolley-push home. For better shoplifting and Argos Jewellery Pompey is only a short bus ride away, where parkies can mix with Chavs from as far as Waterlooville, Paulsgrove and Gosport by the fountain outside the Cascades Centre.
For those over 15s not hanging around outside Alldays with their younger siblings & mothers of their children may I recommend excellent drinking holes such as the aforementioned Wheatsheaf, the Swallow, the Greyhound, and the Warren (bricked up windows- quality!) Though it is not unusual to stroll along Middle Park Way with a can of Stella. At Weekends the chavs get in their Ford Escorts and go down town again (Portsmouth) and usually end the night drinking in Guildhall walk with a dance at Flares or Route 66 and a shag round the back of Wetherspoons.
As every Parkie has at least one child by their 20th birthday Leigh Park is a very family orientated community. Everyone is related in some way and little Bianca will always have a half-sister somewhere on the estate to play with. This may be a barrier to outsider Chavs wishing to get a council exchange here, but enough sportswear should assure any potential parker-partners their distinct gene pool is safe from dilution.
Also Recommended in the Hampshire…
Lots of parts of Southampton, though most true chavs visit Shirley high street at least once a day from the surrounding Shirley, Millbrook and Lordshill.
Lots of parts of Portsmouth- everyone saw the pride of Pompey, Paulsgrove on the news with their paedophile riots, but what about Somerstown, Buckland and Stamshaw?
These are relative pockets of Chavscum in relation to Leigh Park and their proximity is evidence of how the menace could have spread out from Leigh Park like man out of africa.
Leigh Park is a great place, I was born and lived there 40 years, I miss it.

Yeah I went to school near Leigh Park in the 80′s and often got chased on the way home by the Leigh Park turds who went to Oak Park School. They never caught up with me luckily. Too much smoking to be fit enough!
Any true Leigh Parkies favourite sentence is “naffing wrong wiv Leigh Park” They are deluding themselves because they are so used to the abandoned fridges and washing machines on the street corners and Urine stained matresses. All the kids smell strongly of cross between wee and digestive biscuits.
I lived with a Leigh Parkie who was ashamed of where he was from. He was a dirty and smelly individual and despite his efforts to break away from his background he failed miserably. It goes to show that you can take the Leigh Parkie out of Leigh Park but you can’t take the Leigh Park out of the Leigh Parkie. Tarnished for life I’m afraid.

BUT i work full time, i got my own house oh an no kids….not bad for a chavy 18yr old from scumtown leigh park ay!! like lee_parky_girl said…if u dont like it dont cum down ere init!
I agree Matt. You spelt "pastor" wrong.
just a thought, have you ever wondered why these people act like they do? maybe its partly due to being put down all their life by every one! maybe its because the government hasnt done what it should by helping them – its about a year on the waiting list here – i help out at a local church and go around with the paster on a wednesday afternoon and see first hand the needs of some of these people. they dont inflict it on themselves.
i think its unfair that people here feel they should mock others who arent as fortunate as others. these guys dont act like this beause they are any less human than you. you try being brought up in a place as notorious and stigmatised as leigh park (as i did for the first13 years of my life).
rant over, enjoy your lives

i used to live in leigh park above the shops and in slikstead ave before i moved to australia. i think it was the best pace to grow up it might of had it downs but it also had its ups. and the only reson people think its a shit hole is coz wankers like you keep spreading shit on the net. leigh park never got the recignition for the good things that cum out of it. i went to staunton park and they were the best people i knew and you cudnt ask for better mates.
Leigh Park should come under Portsmouth.
You also forgot to mention the botley boyz. The group of selfish chavvy wankers who you are not even allowed to look at (unless you want to be told “U wanna ghet fecking stabbed?”) They also enjoy such things as hanging round chip shops and newsagents, rob, take drugs, steal, mug, comit arson and many other things. I bet everywhere chavvy has a group of chavs like the “Botley boyz” though
I went there once… Well bad…. I saw a big tall bloke with ginger hair who looked like Steve Davies along with a little Scottish bloke with black hair trying to pick mushrooms outside their house. They looked off their faces, the Scottish bloke had a bottle of Whiskey in his hand along with a spliff hanging out of his mouth and looked delighted when their skin head mate “Jas Stace” (Who I can only describe as a cross between a Silver Back and a Down Syndrome Kid) turned up with a pack of tennants. They sat there for 5 minutes whilst they downed their Beer / Whiskey and then the Scottish bloke who was paralytic by this time span off in a white Datsun c reg car with a set of stolen Golf Clubs….. He arrived back later after obviously drinking loads more and crashed his car in his neighbours Volvo, He fell out and did not even make it through the front door before collapsing….
MCGINTY: ONCE A PARKIE ALWAYS A PARKIE……..
Leigh Park = Hell
The local police call Leigh Park “The Reservation “ ………. Say no more
