  • Old Town East Appraisal
    THE OLD TOWN CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER APPRAISAL STATEMENT FOR THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN PART OF THE ABOVE AREA 3 Introduction 3.1. Conservation Areas represent the best of the City's built heritage. In order to make informed decisions involving this heritage Local Planning Authorities need to define the essential character and appearance of Conservation Areas. Hence there is a need to agree character appraisals, or statements. 3.2. The immediate practical benefits of character appraisals are that they: a. Assist in determining applications for planning permission, conservation area, listed building and display of advertisements consents in or affecting conservation areas. b. Assist in presenting the City Council's case at associated Appeals and Inquiries. c. Form a basis for consultation as part of the Statutory Requirements to produce proposals for the preservation and enhancement of each conservation area. 3.3. The clearer and more robust such appraisals are, the greater their contribution will be in fulfilling each of these objectives. Character Appraisal for the Central Eastern Part of the Old Town Conservation Area 4. Origins and Development of the Area 4.1. The most significant aspect of the Old Town is that its medieval street pattern is largely intact. It is typical of towns dating from the 14th Century. Alfred Gelder Street was created in 1901, as part of a programme of Street improvement, which largely created the modern pattern of traffic routes through Kingston upon Hull. The Castle Street/Garrison Road highway developed in the early 1980s, follows the broad alignment of the former Mytongate although all physical evidence of its existence has been obliterated.

  • Capital of Culture Mega-Events and the Potential for Gender Equality
    Gendering Cities of Culture. City/ Capital of Culture Mega-events and the Potential for Gender Equality. being a thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Hull and University of Oviedo. By Barbara Grabher B.A., University of Vienna. M.A., Utrecht University/ University of Granada. December 2019 Funding This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 675378. I Abstract In the context of the transformative ambitions of event-based, culture-led urban regeneration, this thesis interrogates the production of cultures of gender equality in City/ Capital of Culture mega-events. Inspired by Donostia/ San Sebastián as European Capital of Culture in 2016 and analysed in detail in Hull’s celebration of the UK City of Culture in 2017, the investigation seeks to understand the relevance of socio-cultural values in the celebration of art, culture and heritage in the urban context. The investigation analyses the City/ Capital of Culture mega-events through a conceptualisation of their socio-cultural significance, which is informed by liminal and carnivalesque event characteristics. Relating to the politics, practices and perceptions of gender equality in mega-events, the research is based on an ethnographic study of six equality- themed events in the field sites of Hull and Donostia/ San Sebastián. The analysis develops from a relational reading of the two sites: due to its strong emphasis on negotiations of socio-cultural values, Donostia/ San Sebastián informs my research focus in Hull.

  • Sutton Village Conservation Area Appraisal
    Sutton Village Conservation Area Appraisal 1 Summary 1.1 The purpose of this appraisal is to define and record what makes Sutton Village an area of special architectural and historic interest. This is important for providing a sound basis, defensible on appeal, for Local Plan policies and development control decisions, as well as for the formulation of proposals for the preservation or enhancement of Sutton. The clear definition of this special interest, and therefore of what it is important to retain, also helps to reduce uncertainty for those considering investment or development in the area. 1.2 The writing of this appraisal has involved consulting many different sources, which are listed in the Bibliography at the end. Many of them have been quoted or directly referred to in the text, and these are acknowledged by means of superscripts and listed under “References” at the end. 1.3 This appraisal is not intended to be comprehensive and omission of any particular building, feature or space should not be taken to imply that it is of no interest. 2 Introduction 2.1 Sutton retains the character of a traditional village with winding streets of mediaeval origin overlooked by a 14th century church and some property boundaries recalling the mediaeval open field system. In the 19th century proximity to Hull led to the development of institutional buildings and big houses for wealthy Hull residents. During the course of the mid to late 20th century the village was surrounded, but not obliterated, by modern housing estates. Despite this it retains extensive areas of green space with many trees and bushes throughout.

  • Drypool Parish Profile 2018 20S-40S
    Drypool Parish Profile 2018 20s-40s Minister The Parish Drypool Parish is in the heart of East Hull. It is a wonderfully diverse and interesting parish, bordered by the River Humber and River Hull on two sides, with the city’s largest park on another. About 24,000 people live here, and in the 2011 census 9,200 of them were aged 18-44. According to the Church Urban Fund, Drypool is one of the 6% most deprived parishes in England, but that does not tell the full story. The parish includes the century-old Garden Village, built by a Quaker industrialist, and the modern Victoria Dock development, which attracts young professionals. It ranges from streets dominated by social housing, to industrial areas that have seen significant investment from the likes of Reckitts and Siemens. Being City of Culture in 2017 has given the city of Hull a boost in confidence, and as churches we are working to make the most of the increased openness this brings. Drypool is a great place to live – we are next to the City Centre, with all its shops, restaurants, museums, theatres etc; the Humber and East Park provide beautiful open spaces; the bustling shopping street of Holderness Road goes through the heart of the parish; we are a short drive from the beach at Hornsea or the countryside of the Yorkshire Wolds; we are just 5 minutes from the ferry to Europe too. There are 7 primary schools in the parish, and our churches have links with all of them. Drypool is an evangelical parish with 3 churches representing different styles, and reaching very different areas.

  • Not Just Wilberforce
    Not Just Wilberforce Champions of Human Rights in Hull and East Yorkshire essays for Amnesty International Edited by Ekkehard Kopp and Cecile Oxaal First published in 2014 by Amnesty International UK The Human Rights Action Centre 17-25 New Inn Yard London EC2A 3EA in association with Hull Amnesty Group Copyright rests with individual authors and copyright for the volume is with the Hull Amnesty Group ISBN: 978 1 873328 77 4 Design and typesetting by Kall Kwik Centre Hull, Centre 1292, The Woollen Warehouse, South Church Side, Hull HU1 1RR Printed in Great Britain by Kall Kwik Centre Hull, Centre 1292, The Woollen Warehouse, South Church Side, Hull HU1 1RR Foreword This book is about freedom and Hull. Its contributors have all been variously embedded in the cultural, intellectual and political life of the city over many years: they know of what they speak. Freedom—unlike poetry and prose—does not just happen anywhere. Indeed, it is the case that, although men may be born free, they are too often in chains. Freedom has to be won, sustained and protected. It is always at risk, the fact as well as the word. The argument of this irresistible volume is that, as a city and area, Hull has a proud and distinctive history of resisting forms of oppression, of using an angular independence of thought to challenge the orthodox and of fghting for principles and practical change. Why should this be so? The introduction suggests that it may have had something to do with Hull’s relative isolation and the space it affords for thought.
