WE HOPE TO SEE YOU TODAY AT BRIGG HORSE FAIR 2018
Brigg Horse Fair 2018 takes place today - Saturday, August 4 - starting at 9.30am and continuing into the afternoon.
Our suggestion to visitors is go down between 10am and 11 am which is likely to prove the busiest period for "trotting" and trading steeds.
As we post this at 12.02am today, weather forecasters are pointing to a generally sunny day, but with a chance of some summer showers.
Brigg Blog will be taking pictures at the event near Station Road, and will be posting a sizeable selection later.
There's been a notable increase in police on the streets of the town in the run up to this year's horse fair.
We trust the historic event will prove problem free and that there's a really good attendance by members of the public.
As this year's horse fair is being held on a Saturday when may folk will not be at work, that should increase numbers.
We hope to see you there later today.

Due to reasons unconnected with the horse fair, Brigg Town Football Club has postponed this afternoon's scheduled pre-season friendly against Cleethorpes Town at The Hawthorns.
