My Hull... the tenant

One of Hull City Council’s longest- standing tenants Freda, 89, of Bilton Grange estate, shares her memories. Freda says: “All my memories are in this house. I moved here with my husband in 1955 or 1956, 63 or 64 years ago. “Before then, I lived on Anlaby Road with my mum until she got one of the brand-new council houses on North Hull estate and that was absolutely brilliant – we had a bath! “My husband and I went on a waiting list for a council house before we even got married. We both worked at William Jackson’s – me in the welfare department and him in the factory – got married when I was 19 and we spent five years in a Jackson’s flat on Spring Bank until we got offered this house on Bilton Grange. “Now I’m not being big-headed, but I think Bilton Grange is the nicest one they’ve built. The rent used to be 30 shillings a week – it sounds funny to say that now! “When we first came, it was like being in the country. Holderness High Road was like a little country lane – and look at it now.

I did ‘patch walks’ with the council area teams to check for things that needed fixing. I used to enjoy it. “We’re very lucky with our neighbours here. It’s a nice mixture and they’re all friendly. One of my neighbours cooks me tea. If anyone ever shouted ‘help’, someone would come.”

Meet a musician from North Hull estate whose music is challenging people’s perceptions of Hull and inspiring the next generation. Chiedu Oraka, 31, is tipped for big things on the UK’s rap and grime scene. His DIY tracks get millions of streams on Spotify and his live performances with co-producer Deezkid are a force to be reckoned with. He’s performed at Radio One’s Big Weekend, and with superstar rappers Stormzy and KRS-One. The best bit? The ups and downs of life on North Hull estate’s 21st Avenue are the core of Chiedu’s music, and tracks such as N.H.E. (North Hull Estate), I’m From A City, 21st Kid EP and the big hitter, Darcy, are reaching a global audience. Chiedu says: “If you grew up on a council estate, you can relate to my music. 21st Ave is home for me. It’s the hub. I moved there with my mum and sister in 1993, after living in Auckland Ave while my mum was studying for her Masters degree. “The song that really broke me in Hull was one from 2015 called I’m From A City.
