HESSLE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: - Richard Dunstan also had a small ship yard at Thorne, making Tugs etc on the canal - It's "Hezzle" to the locals. The double S sound comes across as "Z" in parts of East Yorkshire
Thoroughly enjoyed that, a friends shop popped up @5.40, there are a few places in our village where the Humber Bridge is visible on a clear day, it never fails to disappoint.
@@TheVillageIdiot I was in Hessle High School when they were building the North Towers, over the few years I was at the school you could see them visibly getting taller from the classroom windows. I was working at BAE Brough in 1981 when the bridge was opened and rode my motorbike across and back again after work on that first day.
I was in the terrible Hessle Homes where all the kids were bullied night and day.... I remember All Saints Church where we were forced to go every Sunday morning, and sometimes we left early and went down Hessle Weir where people were living on the foreshore in old barges painted with black tar to keep out the damp.. there were several of them and they formed a community..that would have be under the Bridge at that time. I remember Anna NEAGLE the FILM STAR attending the PLAZA CINEMA to promote one of her films and the Garage in Hessle Square where the kids would sniff the canvas petrol pumps. etc. etc. SPRINGVILLE SUNDAY SCHOOL every Sunday afternoon
I have cycled over the Humber Bridge many time also I watched the building of it taking many slides I also crossed on the ferry from Newholland to Hull on a cycle ride
There were plans to build an observation deck open to the public atop one of the bridge piers. It was going to have an elevator to the top. Unfortunately it was shelved.
16:00 the cross is for all that jumped off the Humber Bridge. In our family alone we know of 3 people who did. At one time it was number 11 in the world suicide spots 😢.
Thanks for this Andy, I have learnt quite a lot. I am a volunteer at Hessle Whiting Mill on the days it is open in the Summer. I live in Beverley so I am looking forward to you filming the County town.
@ 3:33 an old-style Kingston Communications telephone call office (phone box). Think the Hull area was the only area in England not served by Post Office Telephones back in the day. Believe that Kingston Communications is still independent of BT (POT's successor since the 1980s) atm. Any of those white phone boxes used as book exchanges?
Yes they are indeed still independant. A mate of mine used to work for Plusnet. He regularly had to tell people from Hull that very fact when sorting out their broadband. In Hull your choices are KC or nowt! Havent seen one yet used as one, but Brantingham's was a brilliant little info box!
Like most Yorkshire folk , I would think, I only know Hessle in relation to the Humber Bridge, so it was good to see the town itself which was a pleasant place. Thanks.
Grew up in Hessle and moved out when I was around 18. For your information, nobody local ever referred to it as He"ss"le, to locals its always been pronounced Hezzle! Like Hull has always been Ull 😁😁😁😂 The last 45 years since I left has seen huge changes, some good some not so good. Little Switz was our playground as kids, and the sanitized country park there now is a shadow of its former natural glory. The Square was a huge carpark in the center but now those spaces have been lost and replaced by a few around the outer edges. Things move on as they say, but fond memories of bygone days will always linger.
I've given up with pronouncing stuff like the locals do and I just say it in my native Lincolnshire tongue 🤣 Seems an East Yorkshire thing with the double S, much like beforehand with Wressle ("Wrezzle") and no doubt Wilberfoss ("Wilberfozz") which is next week's episode.
@@TheVillageIdiot lol, funnily enough I dont live far away from wressle today, actually had a xmas meal at the old coach house a few weeks ago. But that I pronounce exactly as it is written. Until you mentioned it I had never noticed 😂😂😂😂 But Hezzle will always be Hezzle to anyone that lived there 😁😁
@@GHExploration I'm probably right in thinking as thats closer to York, that makes the difference. The York accent is much softer and breathy than that in Hull...yet both are unmistakeably Yorkshire
@@TheVillageIdiot you are not wrong, my point was when I was brought up in Hessle back in the 60's, residents were very proud of being part of Beverley Borough and not Hull

I am visiting ERY next week and Hessle is where my grandmum was born. I so appreciate your doing this. ❤️
THAT is some bridge! Time of year does not matter, love seeing these parishes.
Thoroughly enjoyed that, a friends shop popped up @5.40, there are a few places in our village where the Humber Bridge is visible on a clear day, it never fails to disappoint.
And even though I've crossed it many many times, it still feels like a new experience every time 😁
Great stuff Andy always enjoy a trip to the Humber Bridge started visiting when the Bridge was under construction.
I wasn't even born then haha, mustve been a marvel to witness

You can see the tips of The Humber Bridge from the hills in the North West of Sheffield ( Kirk Edge, Grenoside) with binoculars. 😊

Great vid. The locals pronounce it Hezzle!
They do indeed
Came here to say exactly that, heszle!
Or Ezzle

Oh wow, I didn't know that, very sad but still a beautiful bridge 🇬🇧👍

Wilberfoss is indeed just Wilberfoss, you can't please everyone I'm afraid 🤷♂️

@@Keefymonoped Growing up, we sometimes used the word "Hezzling" to mean "throwing".
I wonder if theres a connection?

Hessle was part of Beverly Borough, not Kingston-upon-Hull more like Cottingham and Willerby
Hence why it should never be considered as Hull 👍
