Whether or not you agree that the term Village Green should apply within a market town, the good news is that Brigg is to get one. It will be on what many of us call The Paddock, off Station Road. "It's going through the process now," says Coun Nigel Sherwood.
One of his Cabinet colleagues at North Lincolnshire Council recently took a decision that paves the way for the Green to be established, having been discussed and debate for many years. We also expect a public footpath to be established.
There's much legal and administrative work required to set this up. As is often the case in local government, it's the small things that seem to involve most effort and procedure.
During Queen Victoria's reign, Brigg Town Cricket Club was based on this site - long famed for its trees and variety of bird life.
