PUMP DRESSING IN BRIGG

Freeman of Brigg, Tom Glossop, and his wife, Maureen,  after the pump had been dressed near the Nelthorpe Arms and County Bridge.
Last Saturday saw Pump Dressing in Brigg with dancing and other entertainment in the town centre. These pictures were taken by Ken Harrison at the old town water pump near the County Bridge. The other surviving pump, of course, is alongside the White Horse, in Grammar School Road South. Brigg Town Business Partnership organised the event, reintroducing something first started in the town by Brigg Amateur Social Historians.
