Although we are known as Scunthorpe
& District Branch, we do cover a very wide area. The following
post code areas are covered by the Branch. DN15, DN16, DN17, DN18,
DN19, DN20, DN38, DN39, DN40. A more descriptive explanation of the
areas we cover is given below.
If you take
the river Trent to the west of Scunthorpe and follow the river we cover
all the villages between Scunthorpe and the river Trent in a northerly
direction to the river Humber and in a southerly direction to the river
Ouse. We will travel beyond the river to Crowle
and some of the other villages if called upon to do so.
In the absence of a Gainsborough Branch we do
now also try to cover as much of the old Gainsborough Branch area as
possible, but this is only when we have the resources available to do
so.
The main towns we cover are Scunthorpe, Ashby,
Messingham, Brigg, Barton-upon-Humber and Barrow-on-Humber, with
all the villages in between such as Broughton, Scawby, and others to
numerous to mention.
In the north and east of the area we cover as
far out as South Killingholme and New Holland, with Caistor being our
furthest point to the south of the area.
As you may appreciate it is a very large and
rural area that we work in, and this does involve us doing a lot of
travelling in order to carry out our vital work.
