Another phase of the Brigg shopping arches project is now evident within the town centre.
Metal frames with suitable motifs have been erected at the entrances to Coney Court, Chapel Court and Cressey Yard.
The aim is to direct shoppers through these courtyards to (and from) the main Old Courts Road car park, and also reflect the history of these walkways.
Coney Court was once the local base for rabbit skin processing - the fur being supplied to businesses elsewhere which made hats and garments.
Cressey Yard has historic links with printing, stationery and the Victorian postal service.
Chapel Court/Yard remembers the Congregational place of worship (premises now occupied by the Lovelle estate agency).
Phase one of the project - also instigated by Brigg Town Council - included College Yard, which was once owned by an educational institution of note.

| Coney Court is located a few yards to the right for people approaching from Brigg's main bus stop on Cary Lane. |
