A warm BHC welcome!

Brigg Heritage Centre, hire facilities and public parking are all fully accessible. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions regarding your visit.

A 'raft' of adventure. . . Brigg Heritage Centre is situated in the heart of Brigg, within the beautiful, iconic and historic Angel building (1st floor).

​Our star exhibit, the Bronze Age Raft (known as the 'Brigg Raft' - which dates back to 800BC), was excavated from the River Ancholme, and sets the scene for a fascinating journey, charting the rise of Brigg as an important and influential market place, through to the picturesque town we know today. At the heart of all we do is education, with children crafts, POP-UP exhibitions, talks, creative workshops and events. . . there is always something new!

We are open to the general public 10am - 2pm on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
