A new street name is evident in Brigg - and it is historic.
Falcon Way is a reference to the renowned cycle-making company which was once a major employer in the town.
It even provided hand-made bikes for Prince William and Prince Harry when they were young boys and their mother the Princess of Wales (Lady Diana|) visited the Brigg factory.
Falcon Way connects with the A18 on Bridge Street and leads to a major housing development now being constructed on the former factory site.
This Keigar Homes property development has been named The Falcon and will involve almost 70 new properties.
Building work is now progressing.
There will be other named streets connecting with Falcon Way.
PICTURED: Falcon Way today (Wednesday, January 19, 2022) with construction work continuing on new properties nearby, and a reminder of how things used to look from the A18 when Falcon still had a base in the town.
