Relatively few pictures taken inside the Ancholme Inn, Brigg, during social events have survived down the decades.
Here are a couple we took in late February 1998 when Brigg Town Cricket Club held a fund-raising quiz night, with associated games of darts and dominoes. It was aimed at getting players together again after the winter break.
Cormac Kenny and Ryan North team up on one of the tables (above), while Patrick Kenny and Stan Mosey are seen on the oche (below).
This event was held in the sizeable function room - admission to which was gained through the side entrance, off the extensive car park.
The Ancholme was built in 1960. Some great nights - with live music and discos - were enjoyed at the pub, which reached the peak of popularity during Alan Long's tenure as landlord.
Many organisations used the Ancholme function room for events of all kinds, ranging from pigeon and angling clubs to Brigg Amateur Social Historians' monthly talks.
It was smaller and less expensive to use than the cavernous Corn Exchange (subsequently demolished) and the Angel Hotel Ballroom (converted to the Angel Suite in the mid-1990s).
The Ancholme was one of many social venues used by Brigg Town Cricket Club (founded in 1973) for its annual trophy presentation evenings in the latter decades of the 20th century.
Early ones took place at the Angel and others followed at The Hawthorns (Brigg Town FC), the Queens Arms, the Black Bull and Brigg Sugar Factory Social Club, off Scawby Road, Scawby Brook. Town used the factory sportsground for first team home games in the period prior to the plant's closure during the early 1990s.
The Ancholme Inn entered teams in local games leagues for all, or most, of its life - with the clicking of dominoes and the noise of darts hitting the board being familiar to midweek drinkers.
The pub served its last pints in 2012 and was later demolished to make way for a housing development off Grammar School Road.

FINALLY FREE FROM HERPES VIRUSI thought my life had nothing to offer anymore because life became meaningless to me because I had herpes virus, the symptoms became very severe and bold and made my family run from and abandoned me so they won't get infected. I gave up everything, my hope, dreams,vision and job because the doctor told me there's no cure. I consumed so many drugs but they never cured me but hid the symptoms inside me making it worse. I was doing some research online someday when I came across testimonies of some people of how DR ADIGBA cured them from herpes, I never believed at first and thought it was a joke but later decided to contact him on the details provided and when I messaged him we talked and he sent me his herbal medicine and told me to go for a test after two weeks. Within 7 days of medication the symptoms disappeared and when I went for a test Lo and behold I was NEGATIVE by the Doctor Who tested me earlier. Thank you DR ADIGBA because I forever owe you my life and I'll keep on telling the world about you. If you are going through same situation worry no more and contact DR ADIGBA via dradigba@gmail. com or WhatsApp him via +2348077875210. he is good too to cure all type of disease and virus. 1 HIV cure 2 cancer 3 diabetes 4 hepatitis 5 herpes. You can contact if you are having any problem...

ReplyDeleteJe veux donner un témoignage sur la façon dont j’ai été guéri du virus de l’herpès. Il ya quelques mois, j’avais quelques symptômes . Je suis allé voir un médecin et de nombreux tests sanguins ont été faits sur moi, plus tard, on m’a dit que j’avais l’herpès. Mon médecin m’a dit qu’il n’y a pas de remède pour l’herpès je me sentais mal, je suis allé en ligne à la recherche d’un remède possible pour le virus de l’herpès, j’ai vu un post du Dr Aba un médecin à base de plantes qui aide les gens à se guérir du VIH, l’hépatite B, CANCER e.t.c. Je l’ai contacté et lui ai dit comment je me sens et il a dit que sa phytothérapie peut me guérir. Il m’a envoyé le médicament via le service de livraison UPS et j’ai reçu le médicament quelques jours après qu’il l’a envoyé, j’ai pris le médicament comme prescrit par lui. Avant l’achèvement du médicament, les symptômes ont cessé. Je suis allé chez le médecin et j’ai effectué un autre test sanguin, étonnamment, j’étais négatif. Je n’ai plus eu de symptômes. Dr. Aba est grand et vous pouvez contacter via (drabaherbalcenter@gmail.com) ou lui envoyer un message via WhatsApp à +2349050514983
