Should they fill Beverley gate in ? Hull

Answer in the comments

The Beverley gate in Hull is:

• One of the few medieval brick gates 
• The oldest example of medieval brick gates 
• A key point in the English civil war 

The current situation at the gate is no good for anyone as the site is not correctly utilized, If this was York the site would be a major tourist draw yet the council has let the site go down hill (funding or something not having a go at +Hull City Council just saying ) 

A better solution needs to be found Hull can not lose a key historical location of national importance ( +Visit Hull & East Yorkshire ) after all it was where The governor of Hull shut out the King Charles the 1st preventing him access to the large arsenal ( royal ) largest outside London I think. Leading to both the siege of Hull and the English civil war.  More of this needs making of the site and more in general Hull has such a rich history there is more to Hull the it Maritime history and Wilberforce as big a part of Hull history they are.

While I have always favoured the Glass idea I can see why the +Hull City Council think this want work fair enough but just filling the gate in is the correct answer. It like york saying it is going to knock the walls down, Hull has lost over the years it fort/Garrison ( @ Sammy point where +The Deep  stands now ) and all the walls the gate is all that remains of them. 

So What to do ?

A few options do exist as I see them ( plus other people  E.g  +Hull Daily Mail comments )

• Take each brick up and fill the hole in and rebuild the remains at street level 
• or in a Museum/ Which museum in Hull would be best 
• Leave it as it is ( not ideal )
• Glass roof  just don't let people walk on it 

  Just filling the Gate in is not a good Answer it will hide and destroy history
