CHANCE TO PICK UP A BARGAIN

Brigg Town Council has a now-redundant water bowser for and a range of Staffordshire crockery available for sale.
The bowser used to be pulled round town to water the colourful hanging baskets and flower tubs, but that job is now undertaken by a contractor with different equipment.
Coun Mel Oades has taken on the task of trying to generate a bit of income for the council by alerting potential buyers and seems confident of success.
“Many people use them, including sports clubs,” he told his colleagues on the Property and Services Committee, when they met in the Angel Suite to discuss selling the bowser.
The Town Council is also looking to sell off some floral Staffordshire crockery, a few samples of which are seen above with Town Clerk Jeanette Woollard. Plenty of items are available - many more are shown here.
Those interested in the crockery and/or the bowser should email the Town Council - enquiries@briggmarkettown.co.uk
