just wondered if you have any old pics of holderness road or in particular BALFOUR STREET by any chance ? would be greatful if you could contact me with info on how i could obtain them as they would bring back very fond memories thanks...joe. ps lovely slideshow.
I noticed in the credits that it says 'Photographs: Nicholas Cox' - would it be possible to obtain high res copies or prints of the photographs of Botanic Gardens station? I'm guessing that Nicholas Cox must be the copyright holder as no other names are mentioned.
@nickladey ..and l would like to add l am not a rascist but l believe when people want to come to our country they must have something to give and want to be part of our society not just economic migrants wanting to make mini versions of there own countries whilst enjoying our freedoms and good nature.l am an athiest but believe everybody has the right to their own opinion and religious beliefs as long as it isnt rammed down my throat.those who live in our country but despise our values.
looks like St. Georges Road 0:42. one of the Avenues ( Princess Avenue) 1:55, Corner of Whitefriargate /Land of green Ginger 2:20, Pearson Park 2:33, Gordon St, Police Station 2:47, Corporation Pier 3:03, Hull Fair 3:30, The old Hull Royal Infirmary, in Prospect Street 3:58, Lowgate 4:07,Market Place with King Billy Statue 4:11m Maybe Humber Dock street or Blanket Row 4:29, Princes Dock 4:54,Aerial The old Hull Royal Infirmary, in Prospect Streetiew of Queens Dock before it was filled in to make Queens gardens in 1930 5:05, Sutton Village Church 6:10, Oss wash Victoria Pier 7:55
The 'fountains' shown at 1:50 & 2:10 are still there in Westbourne Avenue & Victoria Avenue and are listed monuments. Once a very 'posh' area of Hull with its own railway station (Botanic Gardens) it has fallen by the wayside as has so many parts of Hull. I won't ever move back tbh which is sad as I love visiting the folks back home.
4:24 - Which bridge is that? Looks a bit like Scott Street bridge... Now there's something they need to restore instead of wasing money on those damn apartments and that concrete and glass eyesore they are erecting opposite me blocking what little light my North facing house got. Great photos, this city used to look so good, quite industrial really.
hi thanks for your comment the pics you see on vid are from our hull website witch i think you have looked at it will tell you what the pics are thanks once again nicholas cox hull

i love looking at old pictures of hull :D and what people are saying about the chavs and stuff, well to be honest, there are probably more non-chavs than their are chavs. As a teenager myself, i've got to say that not all of us 'kids' are the same. admittedly, some parts of hull are shitholes and bad stuff goes on, but doesn't the same happen in most other cities too? anyway, thanks for uploading the photos :)
were lucky to see hull from years gone by...i wonder what someone from that era would think if they could see pics of hull now...its gone down the pan...someones not doing there job properly these days..
hi this vid is not to do with rugby or football its about how hull used to look do you see any football or rugby pics no so what dose that tell you any way thanks for the comment nick cox
hi i was a long distance lorry driver and found myself in hull very often delivering to the docks late 50s and on . stopped in the sally army . can you tell me the name of the big fish and chip shop in the town . went there for ower evening meal . then a couple in the earl de gray . had no prob with hull great place and people . im from s/wales .
it was could Gainsborough fish restraint on car lane in hull was good for fish and chips years ago don't no what its like now the other one we have is bob carvers that was in market place near trinity church hope i was able to answer your question
Unlike York, Hull had a habit of knocking its old buildings down rather than renovating them. Having said that, some buildings deserved to be knocked down such as the eyesores on Ferensay before St Stephens.
yes hull dose rock i have a web site dedecated to old hull. we have more history in our town of hull than anywhere els in england so thay carnt say our town is crap thaks for the comment

I live down Clumber Street and I love it. Fair enough Hull's got its problems and its fair share of ethnic minorities but it certainly hasn't been taken over by them. I'm originally from East London and have lived in Hull for 20 years now, and I tell you what I much prefer living here. Blimey, I'm a shandy drinking southerner but I seem to have more pride in Hull then the Alf Garnetts who have commented here. My suggestion is get a life and stop reading the Daily Mail you bigots.
sorry carnt help you there hull daly mail might have some im looking for pics of holderness road for my hull web site hull city councill have a lot of pics try there sites just put in serch engin images of hull and see what you get thanks for the coment nick
what are you on about, i'm from Hull myself originally and have seen its demise.over the last 25 years, where did u pluck Ottawa from...thanks for sharing your ignorance ...lol
l was born and bred in north hull,my first house when l got married was down clumber street.it was great untill we had drug dealers move in one side of us and a house full of students at the other..if that wasnt bad enough we had an influx of kurds and eastern europeans take over most of the city with no intention of intergration. our great leaders tell us if we dont like whats going on we must be rascists!.l was lucky enough to get out ..the city l loved with all my heart has been killed.
I live in hull but was born in leeds my grannie had secon hand shop walker lizzie. I lived down Walker st rifle terrace loved it then but things worse here not the same but bet every town got worse dad used to play piano down terrace mother used to sing very friendly terace
Good old days indeed,no political correctness/streets nice and clean/where everybody new there place,but I guess they were living in happier times then. Well if today is anything to go by,so much for `progress`.Also notice how everything in the photos shows how everything was built to last and was top quality. We only now have China to thank for most things...Oh well!
takes me back although i am 55 , love the old days. thanks
That brought back a flood of memories most of all about my mam & dad because he worked on the railways thank you for the memories it was amazing x
