FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Derek Empringham and his team's demolition of the derelict Colton Street canteen buildings prompted memories of the old refrectory at Brigg Grammar School.
This was out on the field, not far from the boarding house.
The roof of the brick-built structure came in for some hammer during the cricket season, when those with sufficient hitting power would bombard it with sixes.
Long after it ceased to provide hot dinners for pupils, the building still operated as a makeshift tea room for Brigg Town Cricket Club, when it played weekend home games on what, by then, had become the Sir John Nelthorpe School field.
Returning to the 1960s and 1970s, any ex-BGS pupils remember a man driving onto the school field with vehicle and trailer to collect the dinner left-overs in large bins? We understood the 'swill' went to feed pigs on some local farm.
Can anyone confirm that's correct?
