HOME IMPROVEMENTS PLANNED IN BRIGG TOWN CENTRE


Home improvements are planned within Brigg Town centre.
Planning permission to replace four first floor timber single-glazed Yorkshire sliding sash windows with four timber double-glazed Yorkshire sliding sash windows to the front elevation is being requested for Country Retreat, 41 Bigby Street (opposite St John's Church). This is not a listed building but is within the Brigg Conservation Area.
A heritage statement accompanying the application says the existing windows are in very poor condition with extensive rot to the lower frames and sills.
"The appearance of the replacement windows will be the same and this will preserve the character of the traditional building and the street-scene in Bigby Street," the statement says.

North Lincolnshire Council is now considering this application.
