Think you know Hull? Think again
I aim to surprise you with an few thing you don't/ didn't know about us.
Hull the Royal city yes you read that right, to start with our full name is Kingston upon Hull kings town. Prior to some time in the 12th it was Wife upon Hull until the king brought the land and founded Hull growing it from a hamlet owned by the church to a royal town.
The tale goes he the king Edward something I forget his number was lead to the hamlet by a hare of all things.
The smallest window in England is at the George hotel in the Land of green ginger.
Like York Hull had town walls unlike York we don't have them know is not quite true there s a section in East park.
Eve heard of the cod wars it involved Hull fish fleet versus the Icelandic navy it was a disaster for Hull in the long run. And talking of war did you know Hull fisherman lost their life in the north sea in 1904 due to Russian Japanese war when Russian warships mistook them for the Japanese. A section from one of the boat is in the Town docks museum and the memorial is down Hessle road.
