When it comes to locating places in Brigg, an increasing number of people use their mobile smartphones allied to postcodes. But modern methods only go so far, and a bit of local knowledge still has its place (or plaice?) in some circumstances.
We were stopped on Cary Lane the other day by a pedestrian, smartphone in hand, who was trying to find the Hungry Fisherman on Coney Court. She got as far as the Cary Lane taxi office without spotting the takeaway. We showed her the nearby shortcut into Coney Court, behind the Servicemen's Club, and her intended destination, DN20 8EX.
A few days earlier we saw a male pedestrian and takeaway-seeker in the Market Place, smartphone in hand. He spotted Scalinis, but sadly had a wasted trip. This being a Sunday afternoon, it was closed. The Scalinis postcode is DN20 8JE.
There's also a fish & chip takeaway, The Garden, located on Grammar School Road, near Preston Drive, which is easy enough to find. However, just in case, key in DN20 8AY.
