BRIGG MEMORY INSPIRES US TO TAKE A BUTCHER'S AT PLANS


Back in the early 1980s a young reporter was sent out from the Lincolnshire Times office in Brigg town centre to cover a business retirement story.
It was about a butcher in nearby Wrawby, who we think was called Mr Bett.
Even in the early 1980s,  shops like these in Lincolnshire villages were already becoming rare.
Currently, North Lincolnshire Council is considering a planning application seeking approval to erect a double garage, including demolition of an existing timber cabin, at The Old Butcher's Shop, Barton Road, Wrawby.
We think this might be the location we visited as a young scribe all those years ago.
Can any Brigg Blog followers confirm that for us?
