Brigg has long-standing links with the Lincolnshire Show, which we seem to recall was once held in the town. Didn't they erect a temporary arch over the County Bridge to mark the occasion? Now, of course, there's a super, permanent Showground off the A15 at Grange-de-Lings, just north of Lincoln, and the event no longer 'does the rounds' of county venues.
Many Brigg folk like to have a day out at the show - me included - and some of our firms are represented. It's a fine place to showcase your business.
The 126th Lincolnshire Show will be held on June 23 and 24, from 8am-6pm. For further details telephone 01522 522900, email admin@lincs-events.co.uk or visit http://www.lincolnshireshowground.co.uk
Our picture shows Tom Wood, of Highwood Brewery, Melton Ross - whose Brigg links are well-known through the Yarborough Hunt on Bridge Street - enjoying a working visit to the Lincolnshire Show a couple of years ago.
