BRIGG PUB REVAMP VERY WELCOME

We met up with Calvin Dow in Brigg at the weekend to discuss the refurbishment of the Britannia Inn,  on Wrawby Street, which will create employment and offer visitors to the homely hostelry a wide range of meals and drinks, including cocktails.
Calvin has taken charge and outlined his ambitious plans while we enjoyed  a Saturday night drink at the Yarborough Hunt, the builders obviously being busy down at the Brit so it was impossible to take a tipple on his home turf!
Many Brigg Blog followers will know Calvin, who grew up in our town and was educated here. He has made a name for himself as a very successful landlord in Skipton, overseeing the Yorkshire Pub of the Year, no less (see pictures).
His family's connections with The Brit go back a quarter-of-a-century. Mine hosts Phil and Dawn retired in the summer but Calvin has now done a deal with the brewery, which owns the premises to keep the link.
