That was the river Anchcolme wasn’t it. There are some interesting bridges over it. When I lived at North Kelsey I could go through the back roads and cross the river towards Hibaldstow on my way to the Sugar Factory. It was a good pushbike shortcut, but I did go over in the car once, there were no signs with weight limits!

Yes it was although I live between 2 ancholmes One looks natural on the map one looks dead straight man made.I really need to findbout more. I live on Carr island between the 2 ancholmes. Tbh the whole river looks dead straight from source apart from where it splits around me . 😮

@@springy-2112 I think the newer bit (the straight bit) was built to improve land drainage, the wiggly bit is the original river. I say newer, but if I remember right it was done in the 1700s! It splits in two at Brigg as well, part of Brigg is a sort of island.

[@springy-2112]

yes I'm slap bang in the middle of the Carr Island . I didn't think the straight bit looked natural. That explains it. I did find it odd that both rivers either side of me had the same name. Shows how much notice I take. Tbh, I've only been into brigg town 3 times since I've been here 15 months. 😅

@@springy-2112 my first place was a maisonette on the sugar factory site. British Sugar charged me £3.50 a week rent. We drank in one of the pubs in Scawby Brook. I bought my first house in Broughton, before we moved to North Kelsey.

Broughton seems to be getting bigger and bigger. I go there for fish n chips. pass about 4 chip shops on the way. Also I go to coop in Broughton having passed all the supermarkets in brigg . I maybe should have moved to Broughton? mind you for Chinese I still go to Scunthorpe takes about an hour all in. Strange with all the amenities in Brigg I still go elsewhere. 😊😊
