Fahami
Sejarah awal
Petempatan yang disebut Myton, walaupun tidak tercantum dalam buku Domesday tahun 1086, wujud di pertemuan Sungai Hull dan Humber pada abad ke-11. Pada akhir abad ke-12 para bhikkhu di Meaux Abbey yang berdekatan membuat bandar Wyke yang baru, dari Scandinavia yang bermaksud anak sungai (iaitu Sungai Hull). Bandar Wyke kemudian menjadi Hull. Nama Myton dan Wyke kekal sebagai kawasan wad politik di bandar ini.
Dengan Sungai Hull menawarkan pelabuhan untuk import dan eksport barang, dan muara Humber dihubungkan dengan sungai-sungai utama yang lain, bandar Wyke upon Hull menjadi mapan dan berkembang maju. Keadaan ini menarik perhatian kota kepada Raja Edward I yang berkunjung, dan akhirnya memberikan Kyngeston (atau King's Town) ke atas Hull Piagam Kerajaannya pada 1 April 1299. Peletakan jalan utama ke dan dari bandar adalah hasil Edward penglibatan. Kepentingan pelbagai Raja termasuk Henry VIII mempunyai kaitan dengan apa yang dilihat oleh pengunjung, dengan sedikit pemahaman, ketika mengunjungi kota. Kepentingan Hull sebagai pelabuhan, dan pada tahun-tahun awalnya sebagai gudang senjata, pada satu waktu kedua setelah gudang senjata London, menyebabkan tembok dengan benteng dan menara dimulakan pada tahun 1327, rumah blok di tebing timur Sungai Hull pada tahun 1542 dan sebuah benteng , sekali lagi di tebing timur, pada tahun 1681. Walaupun semua ini telah lama berlalu, jejak mereka di bandar lama bersama dengan dermaga berikutnya, masih dapat dihargai.
Sejarah moden
Dalam beberapa cara, abad ke-20 adalah era malapetaka yang paling konsisten dalam sejarah panjang bandar maritim yang hebat ini. Dari puncak kemakmuran pada awal tahun 1900-an, dengan kekuatan industri dan perdagangan yang meletakkannya di tingkat yang hampir dengan kota-kota lain di negeri ini, menjelang dekad terakhir abad ini, kisah-kisah nasib buruknya telah bersekongkol dengan kejam untuk berubah Pergi ke bayang-bayang yang dulu dilihat secara nasional dari dirinya sendiri. Seratus tahun terakhir, bagaimanapun, adalah bab yang menyedihkan dalam kisah epik, dan pada kelahiran abad baru, tempat yang disebut Larkin sebagai 'puteri utara yang kesepian' telah mulai menghidupkan kembali secara ajaib dan mempertaruhkan tuntutannya untuk kemakmuran dan penghormatan sekali lagi .
Banyak pelaburan diarahkan ke kota, didorong oleh kejayaan besar The Deep sebagai tarikan pengunjung utama, pusat bandar lama, dan tawaran runcit baru. Wajah Hull hampir diubah tanpa dikenali dengan pembangunan semula Ferensway, dan pembinaan St Stephen's Center, pusat membeli-belah dengan rantai kelas atas, hotel moden, bangunan Hull Truck Theatre, dan pusat pembelajaran muzik untuk orang muda . Hull Paragon Interchange mempunyai stesen bas baru dan stesen keretapi yang diperbaharui. Jambatan kaki baru di atas Sungai Hull dirancang.
Sesiapa yang pernah mengalami kota ini secara langsung tanpa ada tanggapan atau prasangka, akan memberitahu anda bahawa Hull itu unik. Ia tidak lagi terpencil, kerana hubungan pengangkutan dengan seluruh negara lebih daripada mencukupi. Perkara ini tidak berlaku selama beratus-ratus tahun, dan hasilnya adalah satu-satunya. Tempat ini mempunyai identiti budaya dan sifat tersendiri. Itu tercermin dalam aksen (ucapkan "oh tidak" sebagai "er ner" dan anda akan mempunyai idea), humor, kemampuan diri dan semangat rakyatnya. Kain dan sejarah bandar Hull yang berwarna-warni (kadang-kadang mengejutkan) tetapi selalu menarik adalah sejarahnya.
Landskap yang rata dan bangunan bersejarah yang rendah tetapi sering mempesona, memberikan kesan bahawa terdapat latar belakang langit yang besar, dan bila digabungkan dengan pemandangan ke hulu sungai Humber Estuary yang merenung, suram, hebat dari titik di mana ia bersatu dengan Sungai Hull, menjadi jelas bahawa ada sesuatu yang istimewa di lokasi bandar.
Seiring dengan puisi dari latarnya, Hull mempunyai hubungan yang hebat dengan beberapa penyair yang paling berpengaruh dalam sastera Inggeris. Antara lain, Andrew Marvell dibaptis di Holy Trinity Church dan bersekolah di Old Grammar School. Penyair kelahiran Coventry dan Pustakawan University of Hull Philip Larkin tinggal di 32 Pearson Park sepanjang hayatnya, dan Stevie Smith dilahirkan di Hull. Pada tahun 2010, Hull meraikan kehidupan dan ayat Larkin dengan peristiwa Larkin25 termasuk pembacaan puisi, jejak pelancongan Larkin dan jejak patung 'Plague of Toads' yang mengingatkan puisi Larkin, 'Toads'. Patung Larkin dilancarkan di Paragon Interchange pada tahun itu.
Bandar ini telah menjenamakan dirinya sebagai "Kota Perintis", dan tuntutan ini disokong oleh senarai banyak yang pertama berasal dari Humberside. Teknologi untuk Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), misalnya, ditemui dan disempurnakan di University of Hull pada akhir 1960-an. Bandar ini juga merupakan peneraju UK dalam pengembangan teknologi jalur lebar dan telekomunikasi.
Putera terhebat Kingston-Upon-Hull, William Wilberforce mempunyai peranan utama dalam penghapusan perdagangan hamba Inggeris, yang mengubah wajah sejarah dunia.
Hull dianugerahkan gelaran UK City of Culture 2017.

Keliling
Dengan bas
Stesen bas di pusat bandar Hull bersama dengan stesen kereta api Paragon yang berdekatan, membentuk Pertukaran Hull Paragon. Pintu masuk / jalan keluar utama untuk stesen ini berada di Ferensway, dalam jarak pendek dari jalan membeli-belah St Stephens yang baru di utara, dan pusat bandar di sebelah timur. Kabin hitam menggunakan bahagian depan (sisi Ferensway) Persimpangan. Kereta persendirian yang turun dan mengumpulkan penumpang boleh masuk dari Anlably Road.

Perkhidmatan bas di Hull dikendalikan oleh Perkhidmatan Motor Yorkshire Timur dan Stagecoach.

Tiket dibeli dari pemandu semasa anda menaiki bas. Semua maklumat mengenai laluan bas, waktu, dan lain-lain, boleh didapati dari papan maklumat penumpang, Pusat Perjalanan di dalam stesen dan juga boleh dimuat turun dari laman web majlis bandar. Bas datang dan pergi dari tempat persimpangan di sebelah utara Persimpangan di mana terdapat beberapa kedai kecil dari mana makanan ringan boleh dibeli.

Sekiranya perjalanan dengan bas tempatan ke Persimpangan untuk menaiki kereta api, cukup masa. Walaupun bas agak kerap, jadual waktu perhentian bas di sekitar bandar mungkin tidak tepat kerana lalu lintas di sepanjang laluan.
Dengan kereta
Pusat Hull adalah padat dan sementara terdapat tempat letak kereta, ada sedikit peluang untuk benar-benar mengelilingi pusat bandar dengan kereta kerana jaraknya pendek, dan tempat letak kenderaan di jalan boleh menjadi masalah. Beberapa perniagaan mungkin mempunyai beberapa tempat letak kenderaan yang ditetapkan untuk pelanggan atau pengunjung. Bergerak dengan kereta di luar pusat bandar lebih mudah.
Dengan basikal
Hull adalah salah satu bandar terbaik untuk berbasikal di UK, dengan laluan kitaran yang luas, termasuk beberapa di luar jalan raya. Laluan Nasional 65 dan 66 juga berkumpul di sini.
Dengan berjalan kaki
Pusat bandar cukup padat dan terutamanya pejalan kaki, yang mewujudkan jalan-jalan yang agak mudah di sekitar bandar. Namun, berhati-hati harus dilakukan ketika melintasi dari sisi selatan Bandar Lama menuju ke kawasan marina, kerana laluannya bersilang dengan Castle Street - jalan raya berkembar yang luas dan sangat sibuk.

Walaupun Hull adalah antara bandar-bandar Britain yang paling banyak dibom semasa Perang Dunia Kedua, 700 tahun sejak pemberian piagam pertamanya telah menjadikannya permata seni bina yang menakjubkan. Dari fasad yang diilhamkan Flemish hingga bangunan sipil berkubah yang indah. Dari pejabat dermaga hingga memaksakan gudang dan kilang warisan industri. Dari pesona batu tua abad pertengahan di bandar lama, rumah saudagar besar dan teres Georgia hingga reka bentuk moden yang canggih.
- 1 Rumah sewa, ☏ 44 1482 329307 (Tuan), 44 1482 320026 (Matron). Charterhouse dibuka untuk umum sekali setahun, semasa Hull's Heritage Weekend, dan setiap hari Ahad terdapat perkhidmatan di Kapel dari 10:00 hingga 11:00 yang boleh dihadiri oleh orang ramai. Terletak di daerah kota yang tidak menguntungkan, The Charter House berada di Charterhouse Lane, dan terletak di dalam kawasan pemuliharaan kecil. Pedagang kaya dan walikota pertama Hull Sir William de la Pole mengasaskan Biarawan Carthusian sami di sini pada tahun 1350, dengan niat lebih lanjut untuk mendirikan hospital. ‘Gods House Hospital’ akhirnya ditubuhkan oleh anaknya, piagam itu diberikan pada tahun 1384 ketika tuan pertama dilantik. Ia menempatkan 13 lelaki miskin dan 13 wanita miskin, dan dikelilingi oleh ladang di mana Sungai Hull mengalir. Institusi ini berjaya dari pendapatan yang berasal dari tanahnya. Ini menarik perhatian Henry VIII yang, pada tahun 1536, menutup Biara dan mengeluarkan para bhikkhu itu. Walau bagaimanapun, hospital tetap ada dan lama-kelamaan memperoleh nama The Charterhouse. Nama ini adalah korupsi Chartreuse di Perancis di mana perintah Monks berasal. Dengan penolakan Hull untuk mengakui Charles I pada tahun 1642 dan bermulanya Perang Saudara Inggeris, kota ini menjadi sasaran untuk Royalists dan Charterhouse, berada di luar tembok kota, dirobohkan sehingga bateri senjata api dapat diletakkan di sana untuk mempertahankan kota . Pada tahun 1649, Tuan, dengan kawanannya, kembali ke lokasi dan Rumah Piagam dibina semula. Namun, pengabaian dan kerosakan menyebabkan bangunan ini runtuh pada tahun 1777 dan yang ketiga dibina, satu-satunya baki priori yang asal adalah batu di atas pintu Rumah Guru. Tetapi masih banyak yang akan datang dan walaupun Charterhouse selamat dari Perang Dunia II, ledakan yang dialami Hull menyebabkan banyak kerosakan pada bangunannya. Sejak pemulihan dan pengembangannya dengan tempat tinggal yang lebih baik, penduduk yang tinggal di sana sekarang tidak lagi mewakili de la Poles 'orang miskin dan busuk' tetapi membayar tempat tinggal mereka dan dipanggil sebagai Penduduk. Apa yang dikenali sebagai Rumah Piagam terdiri dari Rumah Tuan dan kebun berdinding di mana Andrew Marvell dikatakan bermain di bawah pokok Mulberry dan di sisi utara jalan Old House yang mengandungi Kapel halus dengan langit-langit Adams.

Tanah ladang yang asli dibahagikan untuk tujuan bangunan sedemikian rupa sehingga menghasilkan harta tanah dengan gaya yang berbeza walaupun umumnya ke arah rumah barat adalah tarikh yang lebih lambat daripada yang ada di sebelah timur. Lingkaran dengan air pancut adalah ciri dan selama beberapa dekad terakhir ini telah dipulihkan - walaupun tidak seperti air pancut penuh. Rumah-rumah itu dulu mempunyai pagar besi tuang: mereka dikeluarkan kerana 'usaha perang' tetapi tidak pernah digunakan, logam itu salah! Lubang penyisipan mereka masih dapat dilihat di tempat-tempat seperti sekeping pagar asal yang aneh walaupun ini tidak berada di sepanjang bahagian depan tetapi di antara rumah. Menjelang tahun 1910 The Avenues pada dasarnya dalam bentuknya sekarang. Terdapat banyak rumah menarik di kawasan ini tetapi antara yang terbesar adalah rumah yang direka oleh George Gilbert Scott junior yang dibina antara tahun 1877 dan 1879.

- 27 Taman Barat. Much smaller than East Park it was opened in 1885 and is adjacent to the Walton Street Park and Ride. A model railway is operated by volunteers and more information on this could be obtained from Hull and District Society of Model and Experimental Engineers. There are bowling greens and at the south west corner is the interesting Carnegie Library now a local heritage resource centre. The park is now rather over shadowed by the KC Stadium and suffers a little from the proximity of busy roads. However, there is a £7 million make over planned for this park
- 28 Pickering Park. Named after Christopher Pickering a successful trawler owner who donated 50 acres of land for a park which opened in 1911. Adjacent to the park Pickering also built Pickering Homes, a set of 12 attractive alms houses for ex-fishermen. Situated in west Hull on Pickering Road off Boothferry Road. The park has fishing ponds, football pitches, bowling greens, ornamental gardens, an aviary and a boating lake. The park hosts concerts and fishing competitions
- 29 Pearson Park (the park lies between Beverley Road and Prince's Avenue about 1 mile north west of the city centre). This is Hull's first public park, tree planting starting in 1860. It was opened as the Peoples Park, but was later named Pearson Park after Zachariah Pearson, ship owner and at one time Mayor of Hull. He gave the land to the people of Hull but being a shrewd business man retained 12 acres of land round it for housing development. Pearson went bankrupt running arms to the southern states in the American Civil War and is buried in a modest grave in the nearby old General Cemetery on Spring Bank West, which itself is worth a visit. At the east side there is a large pair of ornamental metal gates and within the park there is a small lake and fountain, a ‘Victorian’ glasshouse, statues of Queen Victoria (1861) and Prince Albert (1868), an elegant Victorian drinking fountain (1864), the cupola of the old Town Hall (west side) and next to this a children’s playground. Bowling greens are situated at the east side. Many of the large houses surrounding the park are of interest and include the one in which Philip Larkin, the poet, lived from 1956-1974.

- 30 [pautan mati]The Garden Village. During the late 1800s and early 1900s a number of industrial philanthropists around the country became aware of the very poor housing occupied by many of their workers and decided to build houses of a higher standard for them. One such philanthropist was Sir James Reckitt, a Quaker, who developed the Hull based company Reckitt and Sons which was started by his father Isaac. The company became Reckitt and Colman in 1938, and Reckitt Benckiser in 1999. In 1907 Sir James formed a company, the Garden Village (Hull) Ltd., with his own money and initiated the building of The Garden Village which he opened on July 1, 1908. The houses were rented, the amount depending on their size, but in 1950, tenants were allowed to buy them. Garden Village has a mix of house size and architectural styles (but all have gardens), there is a large grassy area, The Oval, where the houses were individually designed, a Club House supporting various activities, a colonnaded shopping centre restored as flats and three alms houses, now homes for the elderly, referred to as Havens. All the roads are tree lined and named after trees, e.g. Chestnut Avenue, Lilac Avenue. The area, which lies some 2 miles NE of the city centre (near East Park), can be approached from Holderness Road via Village Road or Laburnum Avenue or from James Reckitt Avenue via Laburnum or Chestnut Avenues.

Berjalan
Hull lends itself well to walking, and the following highlights five walking routes around the old part of the city.
- The Docks Walk. This walk, which is just about wheel chair friendly, takes you along the docks which encircled the old town.
- The early town was substantially walled from the River Hull at a point just south of where North Bridge now stands to the River Hull where it meets the Humber. The wall, pierced by four land gates for entry and exit, formed three sides of a ‘square’ round the old town. Until King Henry VIIIs intervention the River Hull formed the town’s major defence on east side. The pattern of roads in the old town is influenced by the wall and its gates. The Beverley Gate in what was the west wall is of some historical significance as it was here that King Charles I, who was interested in acquiring Hull’s arsenal, was barred from the town by Sir John Hotham on a rainy 23 April 1642. This action was a contributory factor in the start of the English Civil War. The development of the first docks essentially followed the line of the demolished old town wall and walking along these docks you are encompassing the old town.
- Standing by the tall Wilberforce Monument at the east end of Queens Gardens (formally Queen’s Dock) you are at a point where a lock joined the River Hull to the first of Hulls docks. The lock ran under what is now Hull College, the large white building at the east end of the gardens. Opened in 1778 the dock was first known as Town Dock then the Old Dock and eventually Queen’s Dock renamed to commemorate the visit of Queen Victoria to the city in 1854. When it was built it was the largest dock in England and took much pressure off the harbour in the River Hull. The north side of the dock is slightly higher than the south as the soil dug out when excavating the dock was tipped here. At the west end of Queen’s Gardens stand the domed Dock Offices. The offices were built in 1867-71 and built in such a way as to look east along Queen's Dock and south along the other docks which allowed dock officials to see the coming and going of ships. The offices are a Victorian statement to the importance of the port of Hull.
- Walking along the centre of Queen’s Gardens towards the Dock Offices you are approximately following the line of the towns old North Walls. Looking south from the Dock Offices (now the Maritime Museum) you see Prince’s Dock. This was originally called Junction Dock, because it joined two docks, but was renamed Prince’s Dock after Prince Albert the husband of Queen Victoria. This dock opened in 1829 (decommissioned in 1968) and joined the southern most dock, Humber Dock (opened 1809, now the Marina), to Queen’s Dock. Monument Bridge (so called because the Wilberforce Monument once stood near it) crossed the lock joining Queens Dock and Prince’s Dock and some of its stanchions can be seen in the nearby excavation. The bridge (removed in 1932) opened between 30 to 40 minutes each hour for the passage of ships which was a considerable inconvenience to road users! Importantly, in the same excavated area as the bridge stanchions are the remains of the famous Beverley Gate. It was at this gate that King Charles I was refused entry into Hull, the first overt act of defiance of the English Civil War. Walking towards Prince's Dock Street, on the east side of Prince’s Dock, you pass the end of Whitefriargate. This is not the original name of this street but never the less an ancient one being named after the white robed Carmelite friars who arrived in Hull in the 13th century. At the east end of this street are the interestingly named streets of ‘Land of Green Ginger’ and ‘Bowlalley Lane’ as well as the famous old, though slightly hidden, Ye Olde White Harte pub. It is said that it was here the meeting took place in 1642 to exclude King Charles I from Hull. The buildings on the east side of Prince’s Dock are mainly old warehouses and associated shipping offices but notable frontages are Roland House and the entrance to Hull Trinity House School. Railway lines use to run along the dock side and rows of open sheds allowed the loading and unloading of ships. Princes Quay shopping centre was built partly over the dock in 1991.
- South of Prince’s Dock is the Marina (Humber Dock, opened 1809). It lies on the south side of the very busy Castle Street, part of the south orbital road which leads to, besides other things, the eastern Hull docks. The old Spurn Light Ship is moored here, entry is free. In September the Marina serves as a backdrop for Hull's famous international ‘Shanty Festival’. The Railway Dock (opened 1846) which comes off the west side of the Marina now also houses pleasure craft. Towards the southern end of the Marina, on the east side, is Humber Street. It used to be called The Ropery as ships ropes were made here and this was the southern most street of the walled town. Soil from the excavation of the docks was used to reclaim the land south of here. Humber Street was, for many years, the centre for fruit, vegetable and flower importation into Hull. Redevelopment of this area is planned. At the end of the Marina is the lock leading to the dock Basin and the Humber. West of the Basin is a new office development built on what were the railway goods yards which were next to the Railway Dock. Close to the Basin on the east side is the Minerva pub and near to this some excellent award winning public toilets. East of this area, across the River Hull, can be seen the Deep, Hull’s famous marine attraction.
- A recommended walk from here is up Queens Street, across the busy Castle Street, along Market Place turning right down Scale Lane and then left (north) up High Street. Diversions to Holy Trinity church, with some of the earliest examples of medieval brickwork in the country, and into the old town can be made and are highly recommended.
- The Haven Walk takes you round the north part of the Haven, Hull's early harbour. Many early wooden sailing ships were built along this section of the River Hull, some of them 'Men o'War' for the English navy. As Hull developed the Haven became so crowded with ships that Queens dock had to be built. The walk is under a mile long and is just about wheelchair friendly. Some dereliction will be seen but one hopes that if, or when, development takes place the important features will be saved. At North Bridge it is possible to extend this walk to take in The Charterhouse. Details of this are found in section "See".
- For a stranger the easiest place to start is at the east end of the Guildhall (built 1916). Facing east towards Drypool Bridge cross the road (care!) and walk past the City Hotel pub and the black and white 'half timbered' White Hart pub (1904) to the junction of Salthouse Lane and High Street. Both these pubs were listed grade II in 1994. Turning north up High Street a few new houses are past on the west side.
- On the east side can be seen Blaydes House (circa 1760) with its Georgian portico. It is now the location of the Hull Maritime Studies Centre of the University of Hull. A period hall leads to an elegant stairway lit by an equally elegant arched rear window. In the 1600s and 1700s the Blaydes were important merchants and shipbuilders who had dealings with Samuel Pepys for Admiralty work though in 1702 got into trouble when they blocked North Bridge with a ship’s ‘boltspright’ (bowsprit)! Blades staith (a Norse word meaning ‘landing place’) runs down the south side of the house and their land ran from this staith north to their dry dock behind the Dock Office further up the street.
- Just a little further on the east side of the street is Haworth House (built 1887) and named after the owners but latter used in the interwar period as ‘National Works’ offices. The Haworth and Blaydes family were related by marriage. Beyond this house on the east side are two small houses, Barton House and its neighbour. The only notable feature on the west side is the small road called North Walls, the rest of the area having been redeveloped. This road follows the line on the original North Walls of the city and during the construction of the new buildings their foundations came to light. North Walls lead to Queens Gardens.
- The next building on the east side is the elegant Dock Offices built in 1820. A side door on the right side of the building allowed merchants, workers etc access, the front door not being available to them! With the increase in shipping these offices moved, in 1871, to those at Queens Gardens. Behind and to the right of the Dock Offices building is the dry dock that belonged to the Blaydes and where the 400-ton Bethia (Bounty) was built in 1782. The large dry dock to the north of the Dock Offices was originally the basin to the Queens Dock lock, the Queens Dock being the other side of the Hull College, the large building to the west. The lock basin was turned into a dry dock in 1957 and was in operation into the 1990s. A plaque in the pavement and bricked lines in the road show the position of the old entrance to Queens dock. The lock gates are no longer water tight and the dock fills and empties with the tide. The dock has an example of a Scotch Derrick crane. Here High Street becomes Dock Office Row. Towards the end of Dock Office Row a house (number 3) has an ornate Georgian entrance.
- At this junction of four roads the small dead end road on the right is the remains of Bridge Street which led to the old North Bridge. The large building on the left of this small road is North Bridge House, originally a warehouse or mill but now flats. Grade II listed in 1994.
- Here the walk can be extended to the Charterhouse. This is only a couple of hundred metres further on and is found off Wincolmlee directly opposite the top of High Street across George Street. Turn left down Charterhouse Lane by the old Board School. For details of the Charterhouse consult "See" above. To continue this walk -- at the main road (George Street) turn east towards and over North Bridge. Like Drypool Bridge it is a bascule bridge. Follow the road curving left but stop on the corner. Across the road is a pharmacy, once Annisons Funeral Directors and Livery Stables. The horses were stabled upstairs and a walk through the arch to the yard beyond reveals the staircase on the left which the horses used. Diagonally across the road can be seen the ornate terracotta brick parapet of the first ferro-concrete bridge built in Britain in 1902. A plaque on the south west end commemorates this.
- Follow the road round the corner for a few meters to the small dead end road on the right and walk to the east river bank. This piece of road is what is left of the eastern one to the old North Bridge. From here can be seen some timber work on the west bank which relates to the old North Bridge. Next to the bridge is the tall North Bridge House with elements of the hoisting floor, interesting hip-roof, iron finials on the ridges and attractive chimney stacks.
- Walking along the east river bank towards Drypool Bridge (in 1888 a wrought iron swing bridge) the gates of four old locks can be seen in the west bank as well as the backs of the high street houses. The elegant rear window of the Blaydes house can be seen. In the distance can be seen the smallish conical tower of the City Archives, the square clock tower of the Guild Hall, the crenelated tower of St Mary’s church and the metallic grey dome of the Law Courts. The path passes over the entrance to an old dry dock to the left. The dock is now silted up but interestingly the end is bow shaped and not straight. The past shipping activity along here is indicated by mooring stanchions. Towards Drypool Bridge two large buildings are evident. One is the land mark Shotwell tower where pellets are made for shot gun cartridges and on the far side of the bridge is the Ranks Clarence Flour Mills. Following his fathers death (his father being a miller) Joseph Rank started milling in Hull in 1875, his first windmill still stands on Holderness Road. Clarence Flour Mills on the side of the River Hull was rebuilt in 1952 having been destroyed by bombing in World War II. Joseph’s son, J. Arthur Rank, became the ‘movie mogul’.
- At the end of the path mount the steps or ramp to Drypool Bridge. Down stream you can see the Arctic Corsair, a side winder trawler (free entry but booking necessary), the Tidal Surge Barrier (built 1980) and beyond that The Deep (opened 2002), Hulls famous ‘submarium’. The Deep is built on the site of another famous shipyard, that of the 19th-century ship builder, Martin Samuelson. On Drypool Bridge turn right which brings you back to the Guildhall. Alternatively cross the road –carefully—(there is a crossing near the Guildhall) and proceed on another walk along the west bank of the River Hull. This starts next to the south side of the bridge lifting gear.
- The Fish Trail. The trail takes you round old Hull by following various fish types embossed on the pavement. People take rubbings of the best ones but make sure children are safe from peoples feet! To get the most out of this walk get a leaflet (£0.40) from the Tourist Information Office (Tel 44 1482 223559) which is to the right of the City Hall entrance. On completion of the walk the Tourist Office will give you a free certificate to say you have done it!
- Walking with Wilberforce Trail. This trail takes you round the old town among places that would probably have been familiar to William Wilberforce who was famous for his part in the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade. He was born in Hull and his early education took place here. He later became the Member of Parliament Hull. The trail starts where he was born at Wilberforce House in High Street. If you have time you could start with visiting the house, now a museum about slavery. There are twelve stops in the trail the final one being the Wilberforce Monument at the east end of Queens Gardens. Obtain a leaflet from the Tourist Information Office (Tel 44 1482 223559)on the right hand side of the City Hall entrance.
- The Victoria Dock Heritage Trail takes you around a south east area of Hull which at one time included Victoria Dock (1850-1970) and the Timber Ponds 1 and 2. Only a few landmarks remain as most disappeared under the Victoria Housing development. The area was once a vibrant cog in Hull’s economy but little remains to testify to this. The walk of about 2 hours takes covers an area from The Deep, on the edge of the River Hull, to the eastern edge of where Timber Ponds and Earle’s Ship Yard used to be. A leaflet can be obtained from the Tourist Information Office.

- Sea Fever Shanty Festival. The major part of Hull's Maritime Festival. Usually held on the first Saturday and Sunday in September it attracts major shanty singers from the UK as well as from around the world. The main stage is along the Prince's dock side and groups sing in the pubs near by. While some stalls along the dock sell variety a of things others represent various organisations. All performances are free though the concerts in the City Hall on Saturday evening and the Survivors Concert on Sunday evening are by ticket. Various barges are moored alongside and can be visited free of charge. If your into shanty singing it's a really good weekend.
- 6 Hull Fair. A huge travelling fair, and one of the city's greatest regular occasions, if not its greatest. It is the biggest European fair, and at over 700 years old, also one of the oldest. Visiting the fair is a must, though for evening visitors from a long way out of town, overnight accommodation may be necessary. The first charter for a ‘fair’ was granted in 1278 though in 1293 Edward I proscribed the original length of it. In the 18th and 19th centuries, it developed more into a fair, and less of a festive market, and later mechanisation allowed more varied and bigger ‘rides’ to be developed. In 1888, the fair moved to its current site in Walton Street where itk occupies an area of 16 acres. Attractions vary: simple stalls where you can win prizes; large complex rides many of which may challenge one if not all your senses; children’s rides; stalls selling all manner of food (candy floss, hot- dogs, chips, brandy snap, toffee apples, coconuts, etc.) and goods (balloons, masks, toys, fancy hats, cheap jewellery, etc.) It is not easy to cover the whole fair in one visit and local people may go several times. Prices are less on the first afternoon the fair opens but daylight takes something away from the experience. At night the fair is brightly lit and its glow can be seen from miles away. At night it is crowded though generally safe but the hand of young children should be held as, in any crowded space, they can soon get lost from view in the mass of people. The weather can be cold so warm clothing is advisable. Police and medical services patrol the fair. Parking near the fair is difficult so a walk is usually required. Three main entrances are available; Spring Bank West and Walton Street, Anlaby Road and Walton Street and the metal bridge at the junction of Argyle Street and Londesborough Street. Hull Fair is held during the second week of October. The exact dates are available on the Hull Fair web site.

- The University of Hull is considered one of the friendliest universities in the UK. The foundation stone of the University College Hull (operating through the University of London) was laid in 1928 by King George VI. It obtained its own University Charter in 1954 as the University of Hull. The old campus was expanded by the addition of the old University of Humberside site which moved to Lincoln as the University of Lincoln. The University is on Cottingham Road, the front buildings of which are not without merit.
- The University of Lincoln also has a presence within the city though its main activity is now in the City of Lincoln.

Along with the influx of investment into the regeneration of the city centre, there is evidently a concerted effort to expand and improve upon the city's retail offerings. The St Stephen's shopping centre includes over 30 large format stores such as Next, USC, Cult, Zara and H&M along with many other high street names.
- 2 Princes Quay. Built on stilts above the Princes Dock the shopping centre is the largest mall in the city centre, with over 100 shops on three floors.
- Planning permission has been granted to expand the main shopping centre of Princes Quay out to the west. The £300 million Quay West scheme would be an open air expansion, with the proposed regeneration of this land more than doubling the current size of the centre.
- 3 Savile Street. For classic tailoring and trendy designer names, the cobbled Savile Street to the north of Queen Victoria Square is the best bet, with Read's and Bolo (Lyle and Scott Vintage, Puma Heritage, Diesel etc.) amongst them.
- 4 Hepworth Arcade, Silver St, HU1 1JU. Unusual for having a right angle bend in it, is home to a quirky selection of stores including Dinsdales the brilliant old-school joke shop, Beasley's American work wear and vintage, Fanthorpes stereo shop, a fine art gallery called Myton Gallery which sells a variety of original paintings including those of Roger Davies; David Curtis (RSMA); Bruce Mulcahy (RSMA); Peter Bell and Sue Howells. There is also a Japanese and Oriental clothes and accessories boutique called Kimono My House. Take the weight off your feet at The Coffee Cup café. There is a rather unassuming entrance to the covered market at the bend of the arcade.
- 5 The Covered Market (Trinity Market), Trinity House Ln, HU1 2JH. The entrances to this are at the bend in Hepworth's Arcade, on Lowgate opposite Liberty Lane, North Church Lane via a pub and on Trinity House Lane. The main section of the market sells food stuffs, e.g. meat, fish, bread, vegetables. while the rest of the covered area has stalls selling a mixture of goods, e.g. records (specializing in Punk, Indie, New Wave, Psychedelia and Funk), cards, musical instruments, prints. The southeast corner of the market hall has a square tower which can be seen in the photograph of Posterngate above (see Architecture section).
- The south and west market exits lead out to the main square which contains a row of cafes and eateries facing out onto the beautiful, historic square.
- Tessies (Trinity Market), Newland Avenue. An Aladdin's cave of vintage inspired fashion.
- 6 Walton Street Market. Occurs on Wednesday mornings down Walton Street on the site used by Hull Fair. There is good parking. The Walton Street Park and Ride service leaves from here (bus number 701). Good weather brings out more stalls. For sale --- vegetables, meat, clothes, carpets, toys, electrical goods, plants, flowers, tools, fishing equipment, jewellery—you name it its probably there. The central area is given over to ‘car booters’ with a plethora of merchandise. Very crowded just before Christmas. Try to bargain?.

Hull is certainly not short of traditional pubs.
The Avenues (Princes and Newland Avenue) on the outskirts of the city centre, is a traditionally Bohemian area which has taken off, with masses of new restaurants, bars and cafes.

Efforts have been made to crack down on violent crime in the city centre, and some of the most troublesome establishments have been closed down to make way for new development. However, as with any other town in the UK, evenings on a weekend are a time when you should be particularly vigilant.
Some areas in the north of the city, predominantly Bransholme and Orchard Park are very impoverished and suffer from gang and drug related problems. These areas are best avoided, especially at night. Care should also be taken when travelling down Hessle Road and Preston Road but generally, tourists would have little reason to visit these areas anyway.
