Kingston upon Hull- United Kingdom
Views of the river Humber
Features of Hull This is the Humber bridge:
It is the fifth-largest single-span suspension bridge in the world! The length is 2,220 metres. It opened in 1981 and took 9 years to build!
The Marina
The Deep: The world’s only Submarium- an aquarium with many sea creatures!
Fishing Industry The fishing industry took off in the 1840s. The introduction in the late 19th century of new fishing methods – the “trawl” – and of steam powered trawlers, meant that Hull fishermen fished as far a field as Iceland.
Fishing Today Many docks have closed and are now shopping centres.
