BRIGG FROM THE OLD FIRE STATION TOWER

These Brigg pictures were taken from the old fire station tower by Ken Harrison a few years ago and are among our favourite "odd views" of the town. The top one shows the Victorian building that once housed Brigg police station, cells and the courthouse. The Boys in Blue left in the late 1970s and moved to a new purpose-built station off Barnard Avenue. The view below shows the A18 snaking its way past the White Horse (left) part of the Inner Relief Road that made possible the pedestrianisation of much of Wrawby Street and the Market Place. The old police station and courthouse is being converted for residential use, if you didn't know.
