Hull

I had no idea what was in Hull.
As I am beginning to realise is the case in virtually every English town: Much more than most people give it credit for in everyday discourse.

William Wilberforce's birthplace.
The biggest parish church in England.
A port town history with maritime museums.
A pub hosting the Plotting Parlour, where Yorkshire governors planned to bar the King from the city, helping spark the Civil War.
And several other delightful things!

  1. Among the other delightful things in Hull--Becca!!
    At least judging by these pictures.
    Glad you had a nice time, little miss.
