HEDON: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #134 of 172
EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE PARISH #134: HEDON
Hedon – “High Hill”
With the vast majority of the Holderness Coast now complete, we turn our attention to some areas closer to Hull. This is one of the most historic towns on the Eastern side of the city.
A classic example of a Norman town, initially it was set up as a Royal Mint town, and produced silver pennies. It became a very important port, one of the largest in the country at one time.
It’s a big one this, and loaded with history, so lets check out what’s on offer.

Places to see in ( Howden - UK )
Places to see in ( Howden - UK )
Howden is a small historic market town and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It lies north of the M62, on the A614 road about 17 miles south-east of York and 3 miles north of Goole, which lies across the River Ouse. William the Conqueror gave the town to the Bishops of Durham in 1080. The wapentake of Howdenshire was named after the town.
Howden is situated on the A614, although the town itself has been bypassed. Howden lies close to the M62 and the M18 motorways, nearby to Goole which lies at the opposite side of the River Ouse. The town is served by Howden railway station, which is situated in North Howden and has services to Leeds, Selby, York, Hull and London. Howden is surrounded by largely flat land and in some places marshland. Much of the land surrounding Howden is separated by many drainage dykes. Howden lies within the Parliamentary constituency of Haltemprice and Howden.
One of the earliest recorded parts of Howden's history describes King Edgar giving his first wife, Ethelfleda, Howden Manor in 959 AD, the beginnings of a long connection with the royal court of England. In 1080, William the Conqueror gave the town, including its church, which later became the minster, to the Bishop of Durham, who promptly conferred the church upon the monks of Durham. However, he kept Howden Manor for himself. Records show that the church was at first a rectory, but conflicting records also show that Hugh, Prior of Durham, was given a bull from Pope Gregory IX for appropriating the church towards the maintenance of 16 monks. Howden's royal connections continued when in 1191, Prince John spent Christmas in Howden. Nine years later, John, now King of England, granted Howden the right to hold an annual fair.
In the early 19th century Howden became famous throughout Europe for its horse fair, held every September. In Georgian times, the fair was quoted in The Sporting Magazine in 1807 as being the largest fair for horses in the Kingdom. Howden Minster is currently undergoing another renovation, with the aid of English Heritage. The Minster hopes to raise £300,000 in the next two years. The famous Yorkshire wood carver, Mousy Thompson of Kilburn, made the fine choir stalls and much of the other minster furnishings, as seen on Look North. Children love to hunt for the 30+ Thompson mice hidden around the Minster.
Initially, the Howden Guardians declined to build a new workhouse but made use of the existing parish workhouses in Howden, Holme and Cave. However, in 1839, following persuasion by the region's Assistant Poor Law Commsissioner John Revans, a new building was erected on the south side of Knedlington Road. It was designed by Weightman and Hadfield of Sheffield.
( Howden - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Howden . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Howden - UK

PRESTON: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #135 of 172
EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE PARISH #135: PRESTON
Preston – “Priest’s Town”
If you live in Lancashire and you’ve clicked on this video, you might have thought it was about a town in your county. Alas not, we’re in the East Riding of Yorkshire, and the last one to cover to the immediate east of Hull is the parish of Preston. It’s a complicated little place this one. It consists of three main areas – Preston village where our main walk will be; Preston South, which is often mistaken for being part of Hedon, and Salt End which has both a huge chemical works and a power station.
Recently 'Preston (South)' was marked clearly by the Council, however the two are not geographically all that close, and still stand as two separate areas separated in places by Hedon. Since Salt End sits on the Humber, visiting this one means we’ve completed the entire Humber Estuary East of the Humber Bridge. Crackers. Preston means “Priest’s Town”. It was an important ecclesiastical centre, predating the much more historic town of Hedon to the South.
Preston’s features include Holderness Academy, a secondary school which has made headlines in recent times. Its 13th century church is its main focus, standing on a tight bend, on an equally tight main village street. There are two pubs, a couple of businesses, and a few hidden gems. Let’s get moving!

PAULL: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #24 of 172
Back over to the East of Hull today we have a stab at one of the most important villages there has ever been along the shores of the mighty River Humber. Known for its shrimps, this place has been home to a fortress that has defended our coast for some 500 years, as well as being a major player in the construction of warships.
HMS Anson was built here in 1812 and some of the village’s properties are named after it. Ships are frequently seen up and down the River Humber, travelling as they do to and from the Port of Hull, and without this village they might not ever get to their destinations.
Lighthouses have been important maritime structures for centuries, and this place used to aid passing ships by shining lights from the Humber Tavern, before the construction of the picturesque white lighthouse over the road. It didn’t last long before two more lighthouses were built at Salt End, and then they too were replaced by Thornbgumbald Clough’s High and Low Lighthouses.
The sea defences are key here as well. No less than £11m was ploughed into Salt End Tidal Defences, which included a huge glass wall that runs along the shoreline here. It is the longest glass tidal defence in the country! Then there’s the amazing church which was rebuilt purposely away from the river to avoid flooding, and the story of the tower that’s haunted…by a cow!
Yes, there lots in this one, packed into one small corner of what is a huge parish, but sparsely populated other than the main village. Welcome to the true home of the jellied eel – PAULL.

THORNGUMBALD: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #25 of 172
Today we have another village on the Holderness coast, and this one consists of three settlements. As well as the main village, there’s the two hamlets of Camerton and Ryehill, both of which historically at least were attached to other places in the area. Camerton used to be a part of the parish of Paull ecclesiastically, whilst Ryehill was always considered part of Burstwick.
That was until 1935 when they were to break away and unite with the main village here. This is a very residential area to the East of the city of Hull. It lies around 12 minutes out of the city centre by car along the A1033, the main road between Hull and Withernsea.
For a village of 3,300 people, this one has quite a bit when it comes to amenities. As well as the main shopping centre on Church Lane, there’s no less than three hair salons, a bathroom showroom, tattoo parlour and even a huge gym located between Camerton and Ryehill. I’d describe this one as a busy village – there always seems to be something going on everywhere you look.
The impressive hall which is now a care home has a history of its own but in more recent times, locals here have been more concerned with the demolition, controversially, of the much-loved 19th century pub, The Royal Mail. There’s a story behind that told in this video, along with a whole heap of other stuff that it’s been a pleasure to unearth.
Likely one of those places that gets driven through a lot on the way to the coast, stop a while and have a wander around the lovely parish of THORNGUMBALD.

SPROATLEY: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #64 of 172
EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE PARISH #64: SPROATLEY
Welcome to Sproatley in the East Riding of Yorkshire! This is situated approximately 7 miles north-east of Hull and 4 miles north of Hedon at the junction of the B1238 and B1240 roads, in the Holderness area of the county. The name Sproatley originates from two words and means a clearing in a forest.
Situated in the midst of this area of fertile alluvial soil, Sproatley’s rich farming land was valued from earliest times and has been enhanced and extended by centuries of man-made drainage. When the land was enclosed and allocated in 1763, maps of the time show a sparse scattering of buildings.
It had a school which was within the churchyard. The road, which bore no relationship to the layout of the settlements, was being developed into the important Hedon and Hull Turnpike, which was to be for a long time the only route from Hull to Hedon, as well as to the Holderness villages and coast.
Over the years Sproatley passed into the hands of many people, until 1840 when the principal landowner was Sir Talbot Constable of Burton Constable Hall. One of the later owners of the village planted about 1,000 trees here – which is why in places it feels like you’re in a forest!
Sproatley is perhaps best known for two people by the name of Joseph Rank – The first would be he man who founded the Rank Organisation, a British entertainment conglomerate, in April 1937. He was the son of the flour miller of the same name who had his first mill in Sproatley. Chris Chilton, who died only last year and was something of a legendary footballer in the eyes of Hull City fans, was born in Sproatley
Sproatley has quite a bit for its size. There’s a village shop, two public houses, a former chapel, and a church. At one time there was a police station, complete with cells which was used regularly. It also had a court house, believe it or not. In 1937, Sproatley was a village with about 100 houses and plenty of grass fields and open spaces. There are now about 550 dwellings with a population in the region of 1,400.

ELSTRONWICK: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #65 of 172
EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE PARISH #65: ELSTRONWICK
Today we’re in Elstronwick, another village in the Holderness area of the East Riding of Yorkshire. This one is very very rural and is situated approximately 3.5 miles north-east of the town of Hedon and 1.5 miles north-west of the village of Burton Pidsea.
Elstronwick is an Anglian name meaning 'Elfstan's dairy farm'. Its had various spellings including Astenewic in 1086 and later Elsternwyk or Elsternwick, suggesting a Scandinavian modification of the name Elfstan
In 1823 records its name was still given as 'Elsternwick'. The village at the time was in the parish of Humbleton and in the Wapentake of Holderness.
There was a chapel of ease too which still stands actually – and we’ll get a look at it on the walk around. Back then the village had a population of 154 – which means its almost doubled in size over the last 200 years.
Occupations included six farmers, and farming is still very much the dominant industry out here. The civil parish is formed by the villages of Elstronwick and Lelley together with the hamlet of Danthorpe.
It hasn’t got a lot when it comes to amenities. There are no shops in any of the three settlements. There is a pub in Lelley, and Elstronwick used to have one as well called The Crown and Anchor which closed and was converted into cottages in 2015
It doesn’t have many, if any notable historical figures. The only one I could find was Mary Beal – a well known Holderness local who was married to the founder of Beal Homes.
What it does have is a lovely peaceful atmosphere, plenty of fields and fresh air and a few notable buildings including an old windmill.
With a population of just under 300 spread over a wide area, Elstronwick is one of the most rural corners of the East Riding.

WALTON: Wakefield Parish #6 of 30
Welcome back to Wakefield everyone and today I'm taking you away from the Pontefract area which I've been concentrating on of late to show you somewhere much closer to the City of Wakefield and where better to do that than this lovely village some three and a half miles away from the city centre? I'm going to wager there probably isn't a better spot to do so, not yet at least.
Overlooking a valley on a ridge of land that stands above Newmillerdam Country Park is this very historical settlement that was once a key player in the export of coal from the West Yorkshire mines via both the railway lines through the area and by the now disused and dried up Barnsley Canal. The pub in the village has a dining suite that is named after the eleventh lock on the canal, highlighting the importance of the canal to the village.
The village's most famous resident is arguably Squire Waterton who transformed the grounds of the Hall here into the world's first nature reserve. He is commemorated in several ways around the village ranging from the plaque on the wall at the corner of the The Balk, to having his name on both the golf club and the hotel that stands on the lake where his remains were laid after his death.
Out to the parish's East you'll find another nature reserve, this one built on the former land occupied by the colliery, known as Sharlston West, which closed in 1979 with many of its workers being transferred to fellow pits within Yorkshire, mainly to Selby. The area is overlooked by the massive Oakenshaw Viaduct that carries the main London to Leeds railway line.
The Trans Pennine Trail returns to the channel too, it runs right through this village, and if you walk it, you too can enjoy the sights and sounds of the lovely WALTON.

Places to see in ( North Walsham - UK )
Places to see in ( North Walsham - UK )
North Walsham is a market town and civil parish in Norfolk, England within the North Norfolk district. North Walsham is 7.5 miles (12.1 kilometres) south of Cromer and the same distance north of Wroxham. The county town and city of Norwich is 15 miles (24 kilometres) south. The town is served by North Walsham railway station, on the Bittern Line between Norwich, Cromer and Sheringham. The main road through the town of North Walsham is the A149. Also, North Walsham is located on the B1145.
North Walsham is on the North Walsham & Dilham Canal, still privately owned by the North Walsham Canal Company. The canal ran from Antingham Mill, largely following the course of the River Ant to a point below Honing. A short branch canal leaves the main navigation near Honing and terminates at the village of Dilham.
North Walsham was involved in the Peasants' Revolt of 1381. The peasants' leaders were defeated at the Battle of North Walsham and the site is marked by a wayside stone near the town's water towers.
North Walsham High School is a community school, for pupils aged 11 to 16 located in the town. The school includes a £5.3m arts and education development called the Atrium which is open to the wider community, funded by the initial co-location funds of reanimating communities. The building belongs to North Walsham High School, but the theatre, cinema, workshop and events programme is run by a registered charity. The charity (The Atrium North Norfolk Ltd) formed in early 2013 and operates as 'the Atrium'.
North Walsham now has a cinema once again, in the form of the Atrium which opened in 2011. The Atrium is a state-of-the-art theatre and cinema with regular screenings and special events around the films. North Walsham is home to a London 1 North rugby team.

Hull Walk: City Centre【4K】
Located in the East Riding of Yorkshire, and around 50 miles east of Leeds, is the city of Hull.
In the late 12th century a town was founded here on the banks of the River Hull by Cistercian monks. They named it 'Wyke on Hull', and used it as a port to export their wool. Around a century later, in 1293, King Edward I acquired the town from the monks. In 1299 he granted it a royal charter and renamed the settlement Kingston upon Hull. This is still the city's official name, although simply 'Hull' is much more commonly used.
The port of Hull served as a base for Edward I during the First Scottish War of Independence. It developed into the most significant port on the east coast of England, exporting wool and importing wine and timber. Trading routes were established with Scotland, northern Europe, France, Spain and Portugal.
Owing to its strategic importance on the east coast, various fortifications were built to protect Hull through the centuries. In the early 14th century during Edward I's reign, Hull became a walled town. In the 16th century Hull Castle was built, as ordered by Henry VIII, using material from recently dissolved monasteries. A citadel was built in the 17th century. Then, in the 1770s the town walls were demolished to make way for the construction of the Hull town docks. The castle and citadel were demolished in the 19th century.
The construction of Hull's docks came about in phases. Between 1775 and 1778 the first dock was built, later to be renamed the Queen's Dock. In 1809 the Humber Dock opened, which, along with the former Railway Dock, is now part of Hull Marina. In 1829 the Junction Dock opened at the point now occupied by Princes Quay shopping centre. Several more docks were constructed, which were ultimately closed during the 1970s.
In 1759 William Wilberforce was born in Hull. At the age of 21 he was elected Member of Parliament for Kingston upon Hull. During his career he decided to bring forward the abolition of the slave trade in parliament. After a 20-year battle, the Slave Trade Act of 1807 passed, outlawing the transportation of slaves from Africa to the West Indies. Then in 1833, the Slavery Abolition Act passed, outlawing slavery itself in most of the British Empire, just one month after Wilberforce's death.
Hull is the only city in the UK with its own independent telephone network company. In 1902 Kingston Communications launched (now known as KCOM). One of its quirks are the unique cream coloured telephone boxes dotted around the city. Maybe you'll spot a few in this video?
During the Second World War, Hull was the most heavily bombed city in the UK outside of London. It was targeted by the Luftwaffe for its dockyards, wharves and industrial sites. Around 1,200 residents were killed with 95% of houses damaged or destroyed. Much of the city centre was rebuilt during the post-war years, although some older buildings remained intact, notably on Queen Victoria Square in particular.
In 1981 the Humber Bridge opened. Spanning the Humber Estuary from North Lincolnshire to East Riding of Yorkshire, it was, up until 1998, the longest suspension bridge in the world. The north end of the bridge lies just a few miles west of Hull. It famously featured in the Only Fools and Horses episode - To Hull and Back.
Hull's railway station, known as Hull Paragon Interchange, opened in 1847. A number of railway operators run trains to the station including Northern Trains, Transpennine Express, and the rather unique Hull Trains, which run direct services between London Kings Cross and Hull.
Hull is represented in football by Hull City A.F.C. and in rugby league by Hull F.C. Both teams share use of the MKM Stadium (formerly the KC Stadium and the KCOM Stadium) situated west of the city centre.
In 1983 the band The Housemartins formed in Hull. Then in 1988 they broke up and two former members went on to form The Beautiful South. Also Mick Ronson, famed for working with David Bowie and many others, was born and raised in Hull.

BROOMFLEET: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #21 of 172
Time for a very small village now along the Northern bank of the River Humber. This one might be tiny but what it lacks in size, I think it makes up for with interesting facts. For starters, this is he village that saw a local man risk life and limb for charity, wading across the muddy waters of the River Humber to Whitton no less than three times to raise £160,000. Top man, indeed!
The village is served by a railway station, which is a long way from the village itself. It stands on the Selby line and comparatively speaking, it gets a good service, with a total of eleven trains per day stopping at this station. I think if you live here, the train is likely your friend. I couldn't see any bus stops in this village which does suggest there are none.
There are also no pubs. The one pub this village did have years ago is now no longer- The Red Lion, but you can still see the obvious tell tale signs of it being one with the lamp outside the door and the boards on the walls. There's a village hall here, a fairly recent build, and an old school, a very impressive white building which dates from 1883.
Whitton Island, the river island we mentioned in the Blacktoft episode, falls partly within this parish, so too also does Weighton Lock, the outlet for the Market Weighton Canal which runs through Newport that you saw in the last East Riding episode. Together with Faxfleet, historically, this place was associated with St Mary the Virgin church. These days Faxfleet belongs to Blacktoft, in terms of civil parishes anyway.
It's small, it's rural, it's full of alluvial soils and clays, but most of all it's a lovely village. This is the parish of BROOMFLEET.
