  • Shipbuilding Catching Shellfish
    IntroductionIntroduction Much of the East Riding of Yorkshire adjoins water: the North Sea and the River Humber and its tributaries. Over the centuries men have needed boats to travel over the water and to gather food from under it. Naturally people with the right skills set up to build these boats. Some ship building operations are quite well known, such as those in Beverley and Hull. They have been documented in exhibitions in other local museums. This exhibition looks at some less well known boat building yards and boat builders both on the east coast and along the banks of the Humber. It has been researched and produced by the Skidby Windmill Volunteer Team. Prehistory- the Ferriby boats The Yorkshire Wolds have been home to people since Neolithic times and the River Humber has been an important transport route allowing goods and people to travel in all directions by water. For thousands of years this was the easiest and safest way to travel. It is therefore not surprising that North Ferriby was the site of one of the oldest boatyards in Europe as well as being an important harbour. Above: hypothetical reconstruction of a Ferriby boat. Right: Excavation in 1963 In 1937 changes to the tidal currents exposed three large oak planks preserved in the mud which Ted and Willy Wright recognised as belonging to very early boats. At first these were thought to be Viking but later tests confirmed that they were Bronze Age and, at 4000 years A half-scale replica of the Ferriby boats called Oakleaf has been built and sea trials proved old they are some of the oldest boats discovered in Europe.
