JUST FLAGGING UP THAT BRIGG PUB REFURBISHMENT IS NOW UNDER WAY BUT IT'S BUSINESS AS USUAL

Brigg Blog is pleased to report that internal refurbishment is now under way at one of our town centre pubs.
They have started work on the Hardy's cafe/bar side of the Lord Nelson Hotel in the Market Place.
Customers are currently being directed to use the older Lord Nelson entrance, rather than the one pictured  above.
Perhaps bosses at the Old Mill Brewery, Snaith, might think this at opportune time to upgrade some of the signs.
A good deal of lettering at the back of the premises, close to Exchange Place, has been missing for some years.
At the front, the spelling of the word 'Accommodation' has been incorrect since the sign went up not too long ago when external improvements were undertaken (see bottom left of the picture above).
This has been 'flagged up' previously - a fitting term as the historic hostelry was named after Lord Nelson - hero of the Battle of Trafalgar - whose flagship was HMS Victory.
We stress that the Lord Nelson Hotel is open for business during the current improvements.

This is the Lord Nelson entrance to use at present.
