NEW OWNERSHIP PENDING FOR HISTORIC BRIGG TOWN HOUSE


One of the most distinctive and historic town houses in Brigg has been sold (subject to contract).
The three-storey property, with sizeable annexe, at 3 Bridge Street was placed on the market through agents Newton Fallowell, of Wrawby Street, late last year.
Located just a stone's throw from the County Bridge and adjoining the former Nelthorpe Arms pub, the historic property is known to many local residents as the Merchant's House - reflecting a pass use/resident.
Next door to Barnards Butchers and within the Brigg Conservation Area, the town house is thought to date back to the mid-18th century. The agents call it a "significant home" - an apt description.
We wonder how many owners No 3 has had down the decades.
