Today (Saturday) the entry door to what's now Sir John Nelthorpe School was open wide again, not to welcome pupils but because of improvement work being undertaken inside the grade one listed part of the premises.
Health and safety fencing and warning notices to the public to keep out. The 17th century school was enlarged in 1878 - a date recorded above this door. |
A contractor's van parked at the end of the drive this morning. The original school building is on the left and is protected by grade one listed building status - the only Brigg structure to qualify. |
However, we have asked North Lincolnshire Council for an update and have inquired about the cost of the improvements - not to criticise the amount being spent but rather to show welcome investment for education in future years.
Read about the granting of planning permission and listed building consent some weeks ago...
