Hull, or Kingston upon Hull to give its full title, sits where the River Hull meets the Humber Estuary, about 25 miles inland from the North Sea. It’s a city defined by its relationship with the water; the Old Town still follows a medieval grid of narrow cobbled "entries" that lead down to what was once one of the world's busiest fishing ports. Geographically, it’s notably flat, which makes it an easy place to navigate on foot or by bike, though it can feel a bit tucked away at the end of the M62. You'll notice the distinct cream-coloured telephone boxes - a remnant of the city's unique independent phone network - and the dramatic span of the Humber Bridge nearby, which connects the East Riding of Yorkshire to Lincolnshire. It’s a place with a practical, unpretentious character, where the Victorian architecture of the museum quarter sits right alongside the functional, salt-etched infrastructure of the working docks.
