History of Hull: Docks - Episode 1: The Old Harbour

Описание: In the first episode of the History of Hull: Docks, we cover 800 years of the town's history from its earliest days as a port built for the wool exports of Meaux Abbey, right up to the start of the Industrial Revolution, where the Old Harbour of the River Hull was bursting at the seams with trading ships.


If you're anything like me, viewing historical Ordnance Survey maps side by side with modern satellite views will certainly eat up far too much of your time!
