  • The city of Hull, also called "Kingston upon Hull", is a port city South of York in England.
    We start our walk at the city centre on the Victoria Square. We walk around the centre a bit which is rather empty this evening because Hull also hosts Europes biggest fun fair. The fair is happening at the moment.
    From the centre with sights like the Princess Quay and Hull Minster we also see the old town with the Scale Lane and some old bars around there. We miss the marina this time. Walking along the River Hull it is getting darker so we end this walk on the Scale Lane Swing Bridge which is an interesting construction.

    I find it such a pity that Hull has the grim reputation that it does in the UK... In my opinion, it must be one of the better preserved of the larger cities in the UK. Considering how heavily bombed it was in the war, I find it amazing how many old buildings survived, or at least how much of the city was rebuilt sympathetically.

    'Here' by Phillip Larkin (his ode to Hull)
    Swerving east, from rich industrial shadows
    And traffic all night north; swerving through fields
    Too thin and thistled to be called meadows,
    And now and then a harsh-named halt, that shields
    Workmen at dawn; swerving to solitude
    Of skies and scarecrows, haystacks, hares and pheasants,
    And the widening river’s slow presence,
    The piled gold clouds, the shining gull-marked mud,
    Gathers to the surprise of a large town:
    Here domes and statues, spires and cranes cluster
    Beside grain-scattered streets, barge-crowded water,
    And residents from raw estates, brought down
    The dead straight miles by stealing flat-faced trolleys,
    Push through plate-glass swing doors to their desires -
    Cheap suits, red kitchen-ware, sharp shoes, iced lollies,
    Electric mixers, toasters, washers, driers -
    A cut-price crowd, urban yet simple, dwelling
    Where only salesmen and relations come
    Within a terminate and fishy-smelling
    Pastoral of ships up streets, the slave museum,
    Tattoo-shops, consulates, grim head-scarfed wives;
    And out beyond its mortgaged half-built edges
    Fast-shadowed wheat-fields, running high as hedges,
    Isolate villages, where removed lives
    Loneliness clarifies. Here silence stands
    Like heat. Here leaves unnoticed thicken,
    Hidden weeds flower, neglected waters quicken,
    Luminously-peopled air ascends;
    And past the poppies bluish neutral distance
    Ends the land suddenly beyond a beach
    Of shapes and shingle. Here is unfenced existence:
    Facing the sun, untalkative, out of reach.

      Regardless of his undoubted talents as a poet, Philip Larkin clearly didn't know Hull as well as he thought he did: "Here domes and statues, spires and cranes cluster" Spires would have difficulty 'clustering' in Hull, because though there are quite a number of steeples, there is only one single, solitary spire in the city (St Mathew Church, corner of Saner Street & Boulevard, near Anlaby Road flyover.)

      I went from Leeds with the megabus. Most bus connections seem to go through Leeds. More expensive train options go to York and Sheffield + further for sure. You may want to check rome2rio.com for options and trainline for train times & prices. York is worth a visit and I also liked Liverpool on the other side. I didn't manage to go to Doncaster / Sheffield yet I read Sheffield is also OK to check out for a day. Hull was more an unplanned stop for me due to booked out places in Leeds while I wanted to go from York to Manchester/Liverpool. All worked out well in the end though Hull is a bit out of the way and not on the typical tourist route there in Yorkshire

      The whole UK / Ireland trip took me 35 days and included Belfast, Londonderry, Dublin, Galway, Limerick, Cork, Waterford, Kilkenny, (in Ireland) - flying to Glasgow, then Edinburgh, Newcastle, York, Hull, Manchester, Liverpool, Chester, Birmingham, Oxford, Cardiff, Bristol, Bath, Salisbury, Southhampton, Brighton, Cambridge and London. You may want to check other places. I will put the videos on the channel over time - probably one UK/Ireland video every 2-3 weeks and may show the route on a website for better navigation. It was a bit faster travel in order to cover most places. A good tourist area is flying to London and do trips to Bath/Salisbury (maybe even Stonehendge) and Brighton/Cambridge as well for something different. Depends also on the weather

    0:23 - 0:30 and many more places, there are tall poles with numerous cameras on them. This is so fabulous! Wonder if they allow people in nearby Condos/Apartments/Flats to rent a spot on a pole to observe their own installed camera! This is a great concept! However I read these cameras are for Speed control. www.hullcc.gov.uk/portal/page-_pageid=221,100068&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL.

    Hull People's Memorial is already attracting plenty of attention in Paragon Street
    The finishing touches are being made to a stunning new memorial to Hull people killed during raids by German aircraft in the two World Wars.
    The globe-shaped sculpture in Paragon Street in the city centre features the names of the fallen on a series of metallic ash tree leaves circling the memorial.
    It has been funded by donations to the Hull People's Memorial charity, which operates a shop and a mini-museum in Whitefriagate.
    Charity chairman Alan Brigham said: "The Hull People’s Memorial has been raised to commemorate the citizens of Kingston upon Hull and commemorate those who died in the city during the raids by German aircraft during World Wars One and Two.
    "Hull received so much attention that it was the second most heavily bombed place in the UK, after London, in both wars.
    "Pro-rata, Hull also suffered more devastation than anywhere else in the country and was second only to Malta across the whole of the British Commonwealth.
    "Most of the truth of the suffering of Hull and its people has been hidden away for decades due to reporting restrictions imposed by the Churchill cabinet, some of which are still in force today."
    Mr Brigham said the memorial was the charity's attempt to finally honour those citizens who died in Hull during the two conflicts.
    It was originally earmarked for a site in Queen Victoria Square but was switched to Paragon Street after a re-think triggered by the extensive public realm works ahead of Hull's year as the 2017 UK City of Culture.
    14:07 Love this building. It is Unique.
    18:28 I love how well the grounds are kept here. It's a lovely location.
    30:18 I love how the street lights go from, RED/YELLOW/GREEN! Never see that here in America! Here it is RED/GREEN. Then from GREEN/YELLOW/RED, never RED/YELLOW/GREEN. Fascinating, indeed.
    33:03 Loved Hull Minster, Holy Trinity Parish Church. 33:21 Thank you for taking us inside, the Holy Trinity Parish Church and all around tour outside.
    44:50 Water is so LOW! Is this River Hull? Did it smell?
    I hope I don't ask to many questions. I just love places like this and am very curious.
    Again, thank you Daniel for sharing and reading my input.

    Whitefriargate needs some big investment, ever since M&S closed down its been a very dreary, depressing street. The homelessness is getting out of hand and are sleeping rough in most of the unoccupied shop doorways (Although I bet this isn't much different in other Northern cities). Would love to walk Boris down the high streets in Hull to show him what this government is causing.

      @@civil86able Completely agree. Especially in regards to the lack of foreigners. It really needs a big influx of multiculturalism and tourism. But with the current state of the city its hard to see why any foreigners would want to come. Big change is needed if its going to compete with the other major northern cities in regards to attracting foreign people just to visit the city let alone live/work here. There has been some positive changes e.g. fruit market/marina which is a real cultural hub of the city now but in terms of the main city centre high streets there's huge lack of interesting shops. Its a very fragmented city which is the real problem, there are nice parts but as a whole its miles away from competing with the likes of Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds etc.

    Actually Hull isn't in East Yorkshire. Kingston upon Hull is a city and borough, which means it's a county in its own right.
    I am an authority on the subject.
    Thank you to the six people who liked my original post, which I've since deleted due to male misogynistic trolls who get their kicks belittling women who are intellectually superior to them because it makes them feel big in places where they're inadequate.

Some people need to spread their wings and try living in other places, it helps you appreciate what’s good about Hull.

      With the greatest respect to you and with appreciation to your commitment to a Cosmopolitan Society, I humbly ask you if you have considered the history of Kingston upon Hull in the 20th Century.
      I'm not attempting to berate you but I'm from a different generation who find it difficult to understand and/or accept the millennium, cosmopolitan society for whom you appear to be a Standard bearer.
      Please consider that when I came to live in Kingston upon Hull, it was the largest white fish port in the UK. Grimsby was the largest Herring port in the UK.
      Kingston upon Hull was the most bombed city (after London) during WW2 and was only mentioned by name by Dr, Goebbels, the NAZIs minister of propaganda.
      When I came to Hull there were Trolleybuses travelling up and down Jameson Street.when I came to Hull, there was a Paddle steamer ferry across the Humber, no Bridge.
      There used to be Trawlers unloading their catches upon the Fishdocks that were extremely busy with the Vibrant community.
      I recall 3 Trawlers being lost in a storm in the fishing grounds, The Kingston Perridot, The St.Romanus and I cannot remember the 3rd trawler, there was only 1 Survivor of all 3 crews, Harry Eddom.
      I remember the silent crowd, looking down the Humber, waiting for news, it was surreal.
      This is the Kingston upon Hull that I remember with the greatest respect.
      Yes, we move on but never forget your past history, we remember William Wilberforce, well 20th century history is just as important.
      I don't think that this is an unreasonable point of view, do you ?
