Efforts are being made to inject new life into the area occupied by the former Brigg school dental clinic on Bigby Road - a prominent location near the Monument.
A planning application is under consideration to demolish the old dental clinic building which has long been 'enjoying' the attention of vandals.
It's part of a scheme now well under way to refurbish the adjoining Cedars building and its surroundings.
The old dental clinic is described as "inappropriate" in the planning application, the new owners of the site wishing to provide "enhanced safe access" to the Cedars.
The target date for a decision by North Lincolnshire planners is November 27.
Many Brigg people, as youngsters, will have been "in the chair" at the dental clinic.
Those of us with longer memories will recall visiting the Cedars when it housed the doctors' practice which included Drs Foxton, Bowler and Proctor.
Later, it housed the town's family planning clinic, and for a time provided office space for health workers.
The building was on the market through Bell Watson for some months until earlier this year the For Sale sign came down and extensive building work got under way.
