FIRE IN BRIGG OVER BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND


Humberside Fire & Rescue service dealt with a blaze in Brigg over the August bank holiday weekend.
An appliance was sent to East Parade around noon on Saturday (August 28).
The service said fencing and conifers were on fire, and a hose reel was used.
These wooden fence panels and trees are alongside the well-used footpath which runs from East Parade between Brigg Town FC's ground and the Rec as far as South View Avenue.
When established decades ago it had metal 'No Cycling' signs at either end, and most local people used to comply with the instruction from Brigg Urban District Council.
This picture, showing the damage on the left, was taken on Saturday afternoon - a few hours after the blaze.
The fire service has vacancies for on-call retained firefighters. View details here...
