Well an interesting fact about Hull. My great uncle, who was from the third Reich. Was based in hull when the Second World War broke out. He lived and worked there on a fishing boat. Due to his strong Arian breeding he was called back to Germany and made to sign up to fight the very people he was friends with.
Oi. Hull is home to the first ferro-concrete bridge in Britain. It doesn't actually 'bridge' anything anymore, but that's not the point. It's even got a plaque...look. please log in to view this image
