Many pleasure and match anglers visit Brigg to fish our Old and New rivers, and older Brigg residents will remember when scores of fishing fanatics from Yorkshire's industrial towns and cities used to come to town to spend their week's holiday on the banks of the Ancholme, taking in the fresh air.
A popular place for 'The Yorkies' to stay was the hotel near to where Paris Watson's eatery now stands in Wrawby Street.
Dearest Nigel, Anglers & Residents of Brigg.
