Ok so I’ve explained my reasoning for why it is Do enlighten me on your reasoning for why it isn’t, or why my reasoning is incorrect Cheers
To give the city it's correct full name ....... Kingston Upon Hull Upon Sea #whatthefuckhasallthisgottodowithSummer2019Transfersthread?!
It’s all to do with the salinity of the water. An estuary is tidal and essentially becomes a mixture of saltwater from the incoming tide and freshwater flowing downstream from rivers and tributaries. There’s only one way to check. Someone needs to get themselves down to the waters edge, within the Hull boundary, armed with a beaker and have a slurp. If it’s got a salty tang (although it won’t be quite in the seawater league) then Hull’s a coastal city. If it tastes vaguely metallic and is dirty, brown and full of decomposing organic matter then Hull is an inland, riverside City. If it’s fresh, crisp and full of wholesome minerals then we should probably open a spa. Or a Co-op or Lidl. It probably doesn’t really matter which.
Along with an understanding of the geology of Hull and district. Therein lies the answer. Any sedimentary rocks in the City boundaries, or further West of the City of Hull ? http://community.fortunecity.ws/greenfield/ecolodge/25/yorkgeo.htm
Just to complicate things a bit more, If you go swim in the Black Sea near to where the Danube flows into it the water is not salty.
Its got everything to do with transfer, the mental transfer of a city from being a coastal city to an inland city. This challenge to the psyche is immense and potentially damaging. Jesus man, just think. Is Hull a Barcelona or a Madrid, a St. Petersburg or a Moscow, A San Fran or a Detroit. This is the most important transfer related topic in this entire thread.
