Large swathes encircling the town are designated as a scheduled monument, including the previous areas of canalised waterways, whilst the main area of the haven to the south of the town, is designated as a conservation area. The western end of Hedon Haven still exists as an outfall into the Humber Estuary, and this watercourse is fed by the Burstwick Drain (Humbleton Beck) and other smaller becks and stream.
Previously, the floodgates were located further upstream at Hedon Haven Clough.

Additionally, when the gates are locked against the tide, and the drain itself is flooded due to rainfall, the gates prevent water exiting the drain, which causes backflow and flooding upstream. The depth of Burstwick Drain is stated to be from bed to the top of the bank; at the time of the floods, it was estimated that bottom of that was silt.

New A165 by-pass, Osgodby. The route follows partly that of two of the Turnpikes in the area in the 18th century. In 1767, the Bridlington to White Cross Turnpike was established by Act of Parliament and the modern road follows this old route from Bridlington as far as the junction of current A165 and A1035. The modern road also follows part of the Hull-Preston-Hedon Turnpike that was established in 1745, from the point where it is known as Holderness Road in Hull to the river.
Scholars have found references to Sir Walter Raleigh and Gabriel Harvey. The characters Fastidious Brisk and Carlo Buffone in Every Man Out-- like Hedon and Anaides in Cynthia's Revels and Crispinus and Demeter in The Poetaster--are representations of Marston and Thomas Dekker.Chambers, Vol. 3, p. 363. The character Sogliardo, who Jonson includes in his general mockery of socially ambitious fools, is a country bumpkin, new to the city, who boasts of the coat of arms he has recently purchased, which, when he describes its colors, resembles a fool’s motley.
A small section of road into and out of the Port of Hull is an abnormal load route to and from Beverley along the A165 road. As the road runs eastwards by the Port of Hull, it has two cycle paths on either side. The northern path is for local access, but has a connection with the National Cycle Network Route 66, and the southern path goes into the docks and is part of the Trans Pennine Trail. As the road leaves Salt End, it cuts to the south of Hedon.
Premnath at Occultfest 2010 In 2005, the band released their third album, At the Dawn of War, with a more symphonic sound and elements of folk metal. The band also incorporated more war and fantasy themes to their live shows and began dressing in medieval warrior costumes. That same year Slechtvalk released a live-DVD, Upon the Fields of Battle, filmed at the club Hedon Zwolle; a music video for "Thunder of War" (also released as a maxi single) received some airplay at local music channels. The band toured several European countries with Frosthardr.
Henry IV's landing at Ravenspurn; the cross was later removed to Holyrood House in Hedon Ravenspurn was a town in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, which was lost due to coastal erosion, one of more than 30 along the Holderness Coast which have been lost to the North Sea since the 19th century. The town was located close to the end of a peninsula near Ravenser Odd, which has also been flooded. The peninsula still survives and is known as Spurn Head. The North Sea lies to the east of the peninsula, the river Humber to the west.
Eastern end of Preston Road (2005) The Preston Road Estate is the south-eastern part of Hull, east of the river, between the main Holderness Road (A165) and Hedon Road (A1033). It is located along, and to the north and south of the east–west running dual carriageway Preston Road, which crosses the north–south running Holderness Drain in approximately the middle of the estate. The modern Archbishop Sentamu Academy and community centre, the "Freedom Centre" are located close to this crossing.Ordnance Survey 1:25000 2006; OS OpenData 2016; The area is almost exclusively used for housing, excluding playing fields and allotments.
The constituency covers the south-east of the East Riding of Yorkshire and borders East Yorkshire, Haltemprice and Howden, Kingston upon Hull North and Kingston upon Hull East seats. It also borders a stretch of the North Sea coast from Skipsea to Spurn Point, and the north bank of the Humber Estuary inland to Hedon. From and including the 2010 general election the composition of the seat has changed; the civil parishes Brandesburton and Woodmansey were transferred to other seats (East Yorkshire and Haltemprice and Howden respectively). Middleton on the Wolds and Newbald were gained from the same respective seats.
St Aidans church (2014) Excluding some minor infill housing developments in the late 1940s the pattern and scope of housing development in Southcoates remained essentially unchanged in the second half of the 20th century.Ordnance Survey 1:10506/10000 1956–7, 1971–77, 1984, 1992–93 Estcourt Street Infant School, and Alderman Cogan High School, were opened in 1954 and 1957 respectively. In 1955 St Aidan's church was consecrated. In 1957 a new chapel for the Primitive Methodists was built in Southcoates Lane, to replace the Hedon Road chapel which had been destroyed by bombing in 1941.
Frances, daughter of George Lane, 1st Viscount Lanesborough (see Viscount Lanesborough), and assumed in 1751 by Act of Parliament the additional surname of Lane. Before his elevation to the peerage he had represented Hedon and York in the House of Commons. His son and heir, the Honourable Robert Fox-Lane, Member of Parliament for York, predeceased him in 1768 and the barony consequently became extinct on Lord Bingley's death in 1773. The most recent creation came in the Peerage of the United Kingdom in 1933, when the Conservative politician George Lane-Fox, was created Baron Bingley, of Bramham in the County of York.
Tug under construction at Hepworth's shipyard (2008) Both Paull (Paghel) are listed in the Domesday Book as places within the Manor of Burstwick. The place is typical of a medieval settlement in Holderness, occupying higher, and better drained ground in an area prone to flooding. In the medieval period there were three settlements: Paull Fleet (archaic Paul- flete, later Low Paull) near the outfall of the Hedon Haven onto Humber; Up Paull (or Over Paull, later High Paull); and Paull Holme. Paull Fleet and Up/Over Paull merged into a single village Paull in the 16th century.
Most of the East Riding is in the East Riding Archdeaconry of the Church of England Diocese of York. The archdeaconry includes the Yorkshire Wolds and the City of Hull, with a coastline extending from Scarborough and Bridlington in the north to Spurn Point. The Middlesbrough Roman Catholic diocese covers the East Riding of Yorkshire and North Yorkshire, together with the City of York. Notable religious sites include Beverley Minster and Bridlington Priory along with the historic parish church of St Augustine, Hedon, known as the 'King of Holderness', which is a Grade I listed building.
St Peter's remained in use until 1941 when it was destroyed during the Second World War. There was briefly a church in the former cemetery on Hedon Road, first called St Nathaniel, later St Bartholemew's; it was used to service the growth of population due to the construction, and operation of Alexandra Dock. Initially a sacristy (the mortuary chapel) in the cemetery was used, in 1891 replaced by an iron church of the tin tabernacle type. The church closed and was demolished in 1929; the cemetery was later converted into park gardens by Hull City Corporation.
They rest on three columns, with leaved capitals. Opposite the door is the mutilated effigy of a man in chain armour. The tower, which rises to a considerable height and is a prominent object in every view of Hedon, has double buttresses at the angles, and one in the centre of each face: there are two stories of pointed windows, two in each story, and each having three lights with tracery. The finish of this bold and handsome design is a pierced battlement of particular beauty, and each buttress has a crocketed pinnacle, with smaller ones disposed at regular intervals.
According to the 1856 and 1857 History and topography of the City of York, the Owst family name leads directly to the original Saxon thanes who gave their name to the village. The name reappears in records in 1349, during the reign of Edward III, with a Robert Owst who had possessions in Hedon, and whose descendant branches "have lived in Holderness for centuries", and held lands in Nunkeeling, Welwick and Halsham. An Owst (died 1489), was Prior of Nunkeeling Priory. A Thomas Owst lived at Halsham in 1575, his descendants surviving there until 1836 when the last Thomas Owst left--he also held freehold property in Owstwick.
Amy Black (17 September 1973 - 24 November 2009) was a British mezzo-soprano opera singer of international repute. She was born in Hedon, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, and trained at the Royal Academy of Music. She made numerous appearances at the popular Classics in the Park event, held at Brantingham, and also sang for Glyndebourne Opera, English Touring Opera, The European Union Opera, Wexford Festival Opera and English National Opera. In 2009, she gave a personal performance for Plácido Domingo in Qatar and in 2002, she gave a solo recital at the British Embassy in Asunción, Paraguay to celebrate the Queen's Golden Jubilee.
William Chaytor (1771 – 1847), an industrialist and Whig politician who served as MP for Richmond in the first Reform Parliament, was created a baronet of Croft in the County of York and of Witton Castle in the County of Durham, in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 30 September 1831. He built Clervaux Castle on the manor of Croft. He was son of William Chaytor of Croft and Spenningthorne, Member of Parliament for Hedon (UK Parliament constituency), Recorder of Richmond and Vice-Lieutenant for the North Riding of Yorkshire; his great-grandfather, Henry Chaytor (c. 1638 – 1719) was brother to Sir William Chaytor, 1st Baronet of the first creation.
The house was acquired in 1549 by William Strickland of Marske, who extended it into an H-shaped building with a central hall. Strickland was reputed to have sailed to America with Sebastian Cabot and to have introduced the turkey to England and was twice MP for Scarborough. It passed down to his grandson, the Parliamentarian Sir William Strickland, 1st Baronet who was MP for Hedon in the Long Parliament from 1640 to 1653. It descended via Sir William Strickland, 3rd Baronet, MP to Sir William Strickland, 4th Baronet, MP, who commissioned both Lord Burlington and William Kent to carry out work on the Hall.
Sir Tom escorted Mary to Framlingham Castle and, upon her accession, to the Tower of London. He was named Master of the Henchmen and a member of the Privy Council. He served as High Sheriff of Cumberland for 1547 and as MP for Cumberland in 1544–5, 1547, and 1553, for Hedon, Yorkshire in 1554, for Northumberland in 1555, and again for that county as well as for Yorkshire in the parliament of 1557–8. Being a devout Catholic and supporter of Mary, she had him retained, through personal letters, in Parliament and granted him the Manor of Newhall in Boreham, Essex and a house in London on Canon Row in Westminster.
Hull Sanatorium, designed by Joseph Hirst, was built on the site of Cottingham Castle, a large castellated mansion which had burnt down in 1861, between 1913 and 1916. In 1928 the City Hospital for infectious diseases moved from its original location on Hedon Road to newly erected buildings on the Hull Sanatorium site. A major expansion of the hospital was procured under a Private Finance Initiative contract in 2005. The Queen's Centre for Oncology and Haematology, which was designed by HLM Architects and built by Shepherd Building Group at a cost of £65 million, was completed in August 2008 and was officially opened by the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh in March 2009.
At the general election in June 1826 Villiers was returned to parliament for the borough of Hedon in Yorkshire, and sat for it until the dissolution in 1830. In 1830 and 1831 he sat respectively for Wootton Bassett (a family borough) and Bletchingley, and voted for the Reform Bill. Between 1825 and 1828, Villiers and Sir Robert Wilmot-Horton wrote, under the pseudonym 'Vindex', articles to the Star newspaper, in which they refuted the objections that others had made to the analysis of slavery made by Thomas Moody, Kt., the Parliamentary Commissioner on West Indian Slavery, and defended the character of Moody. Villiers travelled in Ireland in 1828, and set out his views in long letters to Taylor.
In 1774, his father's old friend (and first cousin twice removed), Lord Rockingham, offered Sondes a seat in Parliament for Lewis at Pontefract; however, Sondes declined due to the price of £3,500 asked by the borough's patron, Lord Galway. In 1775, the death of Sir Charles Saunders left a vacancy at Hedon. Rockingham did not wish to lose the seat to the Government, and recommended Watson as a candidate to Saunders' election manager, William Iveson, who had inherited Saunders' interest in the borough. However, the by-election in January 1776 was contested by Christopher Atkinson, and proved unexpectedly expensive; Sondes paid £3,600 and complained to Rockingham when bills came for a further £1,200 later in the year.
The team originated as the 'Hull Angels', based at Hedon on the outskirts of Hull between 1947 and mid-1949. When speedway came back to Hull in 1971, the team were known as the Vikings and raced at the Boulevard, a long track. The Boulevard was famous as the long time home of Rugby Football League team Hull FC. During the years of racing at The Boulevard, the Vikings had the dubious distinction of being the last league speedway team ever to appear at the famous West Ham Stadium, on 23 May 1972, when they beat the closing West Ham Hammers 40–38. Promotional changes, falling crowds and financial problems eventually saw the Vikings demise.
Anson's victory at the First Battle of Cape Finisterre in May 1747 during the War of the Austrian Succession Portrait of George Anson by Joshua Reynolds, 1755 Anson was elected Member of Parliament for Hedon in Yorkshire in 1744. He joined the Board of Admiralty led by the Duke of Bedford in December 1744. Promoted to Rear-Admiral of the White on 23 April 1745 and to vice-admiral of the blue in July 1745, he took command of the Western Squadron, with his flag in the third-rate , in July 1746. Anson commanded the fleet that defeated the Marquis de la Jonquière at the First Battle of Cape Finisterre in May 1747 during the War of the Austrian Succession.
Giraut finds out from Margaret that she had been having an affair with Kapilar since the mission began, and was ordered to not break it off by his friend and boss Shan, who hoped he could acquire valuable intelligence through Kapilar. The failure of the Office of Special Projects on Briand forces the secretive agency into the limelight, and they brace for public scrutiny and oversight. Giraut opts to take his one-year-long leave on the Hedon culture of Söderblom to try to salvage his marriage and to get away from Shan, but after that one year, he wants back into the Office of Special Projects to continue the important mission of integrating humanity to provide a united front for possible alien contact.
Ben Jonson: rival, co-author, frenemy By 1601, he was well known in London literary circles, particularly in his role as enemy to the equally pugnacious Ben Jonson. Jonson, who reported to Drummond that Marston had accused him of sexual profligacy, satirized Marston as Clove in Every Man Out of His Humour, as Crispinus in Poetaster, and as Hedon in Cynthia's Revels. Jonson criticised Marston for being a false poet, a vain, careless writer who plagiarised the works of others and whose own works were marked by bizarre diction and ugly neologisms. For his part, Marston may have satirized Jonson as the complacent, arrogant critic Brabant Senior in Jack Drum's Entertainment and as the envious, misanthropic playwright and satirist Lampatho Doria in What You Will.
See Alexandra Dock, Hull Also in the 1880s the Drypool and Marfleet Steam Tramways Company constructed a tramway along Hedon Road, with their main depot at Hotham Street. The tramway was later acquired by Hull Corporation Trams and converted to electric power running in 1903. By the 1880s "South Ings"; the area south of the Hull and Holderness railway line, and north of the new dock was beginning to be developed; Lee Smith Street was already in existence in 1850, and by 1880 had been built upon (initially named "New Town"), including a Wesleyan chapel (1866, from 1910 Lutheran), a Primitive Methodist chapel (1877, replaced 1894), the Cemetery, Prison and Sanatorium had also been established. Additionally housing around Crowle Street had been developed.
Albin performed various tasks in this period on behalf of the papacy. On 15 May 1253, Bishop Albin and Richard de Inverkeithing, Bishop of Dunkeld, were appointed to be papal mandatories, and instructed by the papacy to protect Bishop William de Bondington from being summoned to lay courts on account of matters concerning his bishopric. Bishop Albin, with the Archdeacon of Brechin, was named as a papal mandatory again on 4 January 1254 and authorised to put Nicholas de Hedon in possession of the deanery of Elgin Cathedral. Along with Clement of Dunblane, Albin was named by the pope as a conservator of the privileges given to Abel de Gullane, newly provided Bishop of St Andrews, on 23 March.Watt, Dictionary, pp. 6-7.
His brother William had already been its MP for 17 years, and had offered the second seat to his cousin, Daniel Pulteney; but as Daniel was also elected for the (more prestigious) constituency of Preston, this left a vacancy which Harry was able to fill (William continuing to hold the other seat). He was MP for Hedon until 1734, and again from 1739 to 1741, and also represented Hull for three years from 1744, and was also for a period Governor of Hull. In 1739 Pulteney became Colonel of the 13th Regiment of Foot, which as was the custom of the time was consequently referred to as Pulteney's Regiment. Under his command the regiment served at Dettingen, Fontenoy and during the Jacobite Rebellion at Falkirk and Culloden.
Because so many people gathered at a fair, it quickly turned into the major place for matching workers and employers. Hiring fairs continued well into the 20th century, up to the Second World War in some places but their function as employment exchanges was diminished by the Corn Production Act 1917. This legislation guaranteed minimum prices for wheat and oats, specified a minimum wage for agricultural workers and established the Agricultural Wages Board, to ensure stability for farmers and a share of this stability for agricultural workers. Annual hiring fairs were held, during Martinmas week at the end of November, in the market towns of the East Riding of Yorkshire in places like Beverley, Bridlington, Driffield, Hedon, Hornsea, Howden, Hull, Malton, Patrington, Pocklington, and York.
Despite valiant efforts to clear and level the former airfield and with some brief flying taking place, the attempts of the group, which was known as the East Yorkshire Aero Company, ultimately failed following a planning objection by The Distillers Company of Salt End in September 1959. Despite the matter going to a public inquiry in February 1960, the decision remained in favour of the industrial works. Their efforts were not totally in vain however, as the flying group would eventually go on to establish an airfield in Paull during the late-1960s, which would become the base of the newly reformed Hull Aero Club until the early-1980s. In June 2016, a book about these efforts was published by Neville Medforth's grandson, entitled The Hedon Aerodrome Saga: Death of an Airport.
Appleyard was the son of Thomas Appleyard, the descendant of a family whose residence for several generations was Burstwick Hall Garth, in the East Riding of Yorkshire. His mother was his father's second wife, Elizabeth Turner, née Monkton. In the English Civil War, he took the side of the royalists, and was knighted on the field by Charles I. On the taking of Leicester, the king "presently made Sir Mathew Appleyard, a soldier of known courage and experience, his lieutenant governor." He married Frances, daughter of the third Sir William Pelham, of Brocklesby, Lincolnshire; sat in the House of Commons of England as member for the corporation of Hedon from 1661; was one of his majesty's customers for the port of Kingston-upon-Hull; was a firm supporter of Church and State, and died in 1669 in the 63rd year of his age.
By 1747 Denis was back in the 50-gun Centurion as her captain, commanding her at the Battle of Cape Finisterre, where he once more served under Anson, now an admiral. When the enemy was sighted, Anson signalled a general chase as he expected the French to evade action if possible until they could escape under cover of darkness; Centurion was swiftest into action, engaging the rearmost French ship and occupying her and two larger enemy ships until the main body of the British fleet could come up. After the battle Denis was entrusted with bringing back to England the news of Anson's victory; as the public acclaim that followed won Anson a peerage, this may well have further endeared Denis to Anson. In 1754, Denis entered Parliament as member for Hedon, a Yorkshire borough where Anson was the "patron" with the power to select the MPs.

A penny minted under the authority of King Stephen There are approximately 5 principal varieties of coins produced by Stephen's mints, normally containing the legend STIEFNE, STIEFNE R, STIEFNE RE, or STIEFNE REX, but one issue bears the legend PERERIC which cannot be translated but is thought to have been constructed by the moneyers to look like the previous reign's HENRICUS, so they could disassociate themselves from the conflict and hedge their bets about who would win, while still providing the required number of new coins. Stephen's coins were minted at Bedford, Bramber, Bristol, Bury St Edmunds, Cambridge, Canterbury, Cardiff, Carlisle, Castle Rising, Chester, Chichester, Cipen (possibly Ipswich), Colchester, Corbridge, Derby, Dorchester, Dover, Durham, Eden, Exeter, Gloucester, Hastings, Hedon near Hull, Hereford, Huntingdon, Ipswich, Launceston, Leicester, Lewes, Lincoln, London, Newcastle, Northampton, Norwich, Nottingham, Oxford, Pembroke, Peterborough, Pevensey, Rye, Salisbury, Sandwich, Shaftesbury, Shrewsbury, Southampton, Southwark, Stafford, Steyning, Sudbury, Swansea, Tamworth, Taunton, Thetford, Tutbury, Wareham, Warwick, Watchet, Wilton, Winchester, Worcester, and York.

Project Gaia is also a member of the HEDON Household Energy Network which unites key actors and stakeholders in the movement for a cleaner, more efficient, and affordable household energy sector. In Ethiopia, Gaia has created partnerships with organizations that serve poor communities and refugee camps. Gaia's Ethiopia partners include the UNHCR-RLO and the UNDP, the Good Shepherd Sisters, the Missionaries of Charity, the Former Women Fuelwood Carriers’ Association, Finchaa Sugar Company, the Ethiopian Rural Energy Development and Promotion Center, and the Ogaden Welfare and Development Association.
Modern Marfleet is an area within the built up area of Kingston upon Hull on the eastern side of the River Hull – it consists of remnants of the former village, including the historic church, surrounded mainly by industrial buildings and port-side warehousing. Approximate boundaries can be represented by the Holderness Drain to the west; the Old Fleet Drain to the east; and the trackbed (now cyclepath) of the former Hull and Holderness Railway to the north; to the south is King George Dock and the Humber Estuary.Ordnance Survey 1:25000 2006; OpenStreetMap, Retrieved 3 February 2016; historic Six inch Ordnance Survey maps (1855–1950) The A1033 Hull to Hedon road passes directly east-west through the area, and the dock end of the Hull Docks Branch railway reaches King George Dock. Marfleet Avenue runs northwards from the A1033, and to the east the original route of Marfleet Lane passes the old village centre.
There was a shipyard at Paull located between High Paul and Paul, took advantage of the sloping beach at that position as a good place for launching ships. The yard built some ships for the Royal Navy: between 1739 and 1774 three warships were built, Thomas Steemson owned the shipyard in the early 19th century; ships of up to 74 guns were built, including of 1812. By the 1830s it was no longer active.Also . Steemson also had a yard at Thorne, a list of ships built by Steemson for the Royal Navy at both yards is given in: Historically Paull was known for shrimp fisheries, in around 1900 the lower part of Hedon Haven (or Paull Creek), and the Humber and Paull roads were access for a numerous fleet of small and medium-sized boats known as 'Paull Shrimpers'; the shrimps were caught in the Humber by beam trawling. The population of the Township of Paull rose from 212 in 1801 to 473 in 1831, and to 600 by 1856.
45305 was sold to scrap merchants Albert Drapers and Sons Ltd. of Hull. No.5305 became the last locomotive on the scrap line of Drapers of Hull, who broke up 742 former BR locomotives. No.5305 was to have been the 743rd and last, but the scrapyard's owner, Albert Draper, decided to save one of the yard's locomotives for posterity, and have it restored to full running order. He eventually chose 45305, simply because it was the cleanest engine in the yard, but nevertheless, the engine was saved. Albert Draper was, at the time, the president of Hull Kingston Rovers Rugby League Football Club, and it was his fond wish that No.5305 would one day head a special train from Hull to Wembley, where he hoped the club would be playing in the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final. No.5305 was put in the care of the Humberside Locomotive Preservation Group and based at Hull Dairycoates MPD where it was eventually brought up to full main line standard. 5305, restored to original LMS livery was steamed again in 1976. In 1984, 5305 was named Alderman A E Draper by the Mayor of Hedon, Bill Tong.
The lions of the Criterion, now at the Memorial Gardens in Hornsea. Cleveland Street had one cinema – the Cleveland, built 1914, damaged and re-opened in 1941 and finally closed in 1960. Heading east, the only cinema on Hedon Road had been the short-lived Picture Palace of 1912–1914. On George Street were the Dorchester (renamed and remodelled in 1935 from the Grand by Associated Hull Cinemas Ltd. It opened on 30 December with Will Hay in “Boys Will Be Boys”); the Curzon (renamed from the Morton's Prince's Hall, built 1902) and the Criterion (renamed under new ownership after renovation in 1935; formerly the Majestic, built 1915). In 1950 the Criterion was owned by Associated Hull Cinemas Ltd. (The lions which originally guarded the approach steps to the cinema are now in Hornsea Memorial Gardens.) The Alexandra on Charlotte Street (built by Morton in 1902) was destroyed by enemy bombing in May 1941. Continuing on to Witham along Holderness Road, at the corner of New Clarence Street was the Gaumont (renamed from the Holderness Hall in 1950). It was opened on 16 November 1912 by Morton's Ltd.
