For years, the land around Brigg's train station has been | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
a magnet for fly tippers and campaigners say it's putting | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
Now the council wants to develop the land but traders at the local | :00:15. | :00:21. | |
Visitors arriving in Brigg by train are greeted by this. | :00:22. | :00:28. | |

Plans have been put forward to build apartments for older people here. | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
However, the land is also home to a weekly market which would have | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
Buyers and traders have been coming here for over a decade | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
and while they welcome the upgrade, there's concern there won't be | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
There is a lot of worry, a lot of worry, because nobody knows | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
at the moment just exactly where the market is going to go. | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
To build it and make it look nice for people getting off | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
I think they should do something with it but I think they should | :01:24. | :01:27. | |

The council says the redeveloment is greatly needed and is hoping | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
We did quite an extensive consultation with residents. | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
They took the view that the market is an incredibly | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
Relocating it to the top end of the site will give buyers | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
the opportunity to build the old people's apartments, | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
which we know we need to, while at the same time acknowledging | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
If approved, it may take several years to complete the work. | :01:52. | :01:55. | |

Most people, when they were at school, may have made their own key | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
rack or coffee table, but teenagers in Goole have | :02:23. | :02:24. | |
taken it one step further by making their own aeroplane. | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
This weekend, they've been at an airfield near Scunthorpe | :02:28. | :02:29. | |

Loads of people telling us it's going to crash but, | :02:45. | :02:52. | |
with it being built by kids, it's been inspected a lot more | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
vigorously, so it's actually in better condition than a lot | :02:56. | :02:57. | |

When you're first getting in, you're quite nervous. | :03:16. | :03:17. | |

and focus on the plane and as soon as you land, you want to go again. | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
It's also an emotional time for all the pilots, | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
aircraft inspectors and aviation enthusiasts | :03:29. | :03:29. | |
I've known some of them from the age of 12, when they were this big | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
