BRIGG BLOG TRIES INDUSTRIAL ARCHAEOLOGY

Remains of the old coal yard signings at Brigg railway station - picture on Nigel Fisher's Brigg Blog

There's very little remaining evidence of the coal drops  in Brigg - raised sidings near the station from which coal was brought in on colliery wagons to heat homes across the town. Due to years of greenery taking over the former coal yard, all that remains on open view is part of a metal chair (above) and a short length of brickwork (below).
