Skippool used to be quite a busy little port for Poulton in the 18th Century and in fact stretched the other side of what is now amounderness Way. But as the river silted up, larger boats could no longer get that far up river so it ceased to trade. Some of the boats at Skippool now havent put to sea in years!
