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.
helloooo

I used to live in leigh park and am thoroughly glad that i left the place. I have noticed here that the majority of the people defending the rotting f**king place, can’t spell for shit! case in point
why do people always slag leigh park off?
its really not a bad place, maybe it might be rougher then some places but cant you just get over the fact that everyone mugs people, they’re pregnant by 18, do drugs, drink, beat people up for no reason cause its really not like that.
leigh park is getting the first acadmey in hampshire and park is one of the top 50 schools in hampshire. so somehow we get a good education. yes, the predicted grade is an F for people who live in leigh park by because no-one gives us a chance?
ive lived in leigh park all my life and never had a fight for no reason, im not pregnant and i dont mug people or never have been mugged?
so think before you say stuf alright!
we go to park,
BEST SCHOOL IN THE UK VALUE ADDED.
i live in leigh park i think its the best lace to grow up cause ive learn all about thing like drugs and other things and Park Coumminty school is the best in england for studant progress and thats in leigh park so its not a “shit hole” or “hell”
tbqh, we dont see why people slag leighpark off,
like around where we live (right by parkparade the little chav hangout ayy.)
its fine down here, we manage to walk from here to havant trainstation without getting mugged don’t we.
yearh theres some weirdos who hang round outside off licenses, we’re thirteen and we dont do that do we, no.

muchlove,

Leigh Park is a lovely place to live, everyone is nice and friendly and you can walk around in the middle of the night without worrying.
Thats what i believe
Leigh Park a chavtown? fair enough
West Leigh, what a place to live!!!!!
I’m from Leigh Park and I have a PhD in Physics. I also teach at a Russell Group university. So the assumption that ‘The Park’ is only full of brain dead numpties is clearly erroneous.
leigh park -leigh park -leigh park-leigh park-for f**king life
leigh park is f**king great lived there all my life tha reast of ya CUNTS can suck my dick
I’m from Leigh Park, I live in Barncroft and had done for 22 years. Simply put, Leigh Park is a shithole and a terrible place to live in. Drugs, muggers, hoodies, knife crime and sooner or later we’ll have gun crime too.
Not everybody in Leigh Park is a chav, but everybody in Leigh Park is a c**t.
You guys are so prejudice.
Leigh Park hasn’t got the best reputation, but that doesn’t mean everyone who lives there are chavs! I grew up in Leigh Park, it’s not as bad as people think.
Sure, the stupid 15 / 16 year old group of teens spoil Leigh Park, and I can see your point of view. I’d be nervous too, passing a group of teens shouting and getting drunk. But I never really see those groups. I’m only 13, and I suppose you don’t want to hear a young persons view on their home. But it is unfair, I’m not a chav, and I’ve grown up in ‘Chavtown’.
It isn’t just me, most of my friends and alot of my school agree, Leigh Park has a bad reputation, and it’s not fair! We’re not all carrying knives, drinking, taking drugs and getting pregnant! Some of us are actually sensible!
You are all dirty skate pricks sfc 4 life!!!!!!
I had the rather unfortunate experiance of living in this god forsaken hell hole for about 18 very long and odius years. Growing up in this nasty excuse for a town was one of the most uncomfortable and un-nerving experiences i have ever had to endure, only escaping from its grasp to attend university ( yes there where a couple of us that managed to break the tradition of getting pregnant or in trouble with the police by the age of 14).
With that said I must disagree with mattbob where he states that it is because everybody brings the area down. The big problem is the residents that live in the area. Yes there is good and bad in every area but here, the residents seem to do nothing to try to help themselves and are only interested in pack mentality, thug behaviour and constant breeding and benefits. ( Have you people ever heard of contraception?) and are happy to just live on subsistance, whilst dragging the illiteracy and inumeracy rate of this country down even further.
If you live in leigh park, work legally and keep out of trouble, the very best of luck to you, you are one of the success stories of the area, but to the rest of you, there is more to life than hanging out around nettos, drinking white lightning and giving birth to inumerable children. Think about it!!!
im from leigh park ive live here 18 years and it aint even bad you get hard times but thats only if ya start with some one else. i got good mates, keith hawley get to no him hes the nicest boy you could evermeet, wilko prick some times but funny as f**k. i will live here my whole life paulsgrove a shit hole try living there
