GETTING READY FOR BURNS NIGHT IN BRIGG WHEN POPULAR LANDLORD TAKES OVER LOCAL PUB
Well-known Brigg landlord Mark Burns will be taking charge of the Britannia Inn, on Wrawby Street, and welcoming his first customers in mid-August.
Latterly, he has been overseeing the bar at the Exchange with its popular Thai Smile meals facility.
Admiral Inns, the community pub group which owns the Brit, has a relief landlord running the hostelry at present.
The exact date for Mark's takeover has yet to be announced but it promises to be a quite a Burns Night when he and the family welcome their first customers!
Mark and Ellie Vickers spent 20 months at the White Hart in Brigg before taking charge of the Exchange two years ago.
He is a very experienced licensee who once ran a night club in Harrogate. At one time he had 26 pubs in his portfolio at the same time, which he leased to a team of managers.
