BRIGG DEVELOPMENT CONTINUES TO ATTRACT INTEREST


Here are some further progress pictures showing development work under way on a very prominent site in Brigg.
Thousands of motorists pass by on the A18 along Ancholme Way, in addition to people on foot.
The fact that a very large crane has been employed on the site - visible from considerable distance - has added to the interest being shown.

In 2016, A F Carpets, of Brigg, were given permission to change the use of what was once the Trent Foods factory, latterly occupied by a car sales business.
North Lincolnshire Council planners approved change of use from mixed warehouse, office and car sales to mixed retail, warehouse, offices and car sales, including partial demolition.
A F Carpets, on Bridge Street, also successfully applied in 2016 to amend "operational hours" at the Ancholme Way premises to  8am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday; and 10am to 4pm on Sunday and public holidays.
A council report at the time said: "The hours of delivery will take place during social hours of the day and delivery vehicles will utilise the existing access from the A18.
"Inevitably there will be an increase in activity at the site (arising from the increase in the number of retail units); however this is a defined town centre site where shopping uses are considered acceptable."
Many in Brigg  are looking forward to seeing the end product of all this hard work.
