Hull
A port city on the Humber Estuary in Yorkshire with over 800 years of seafaring history, Hull pairs a walkable old town dense with listed buildings and historic churches with a lively café and restaurant scene and a city-centre marina. William Wilberforce, who led the campaign to abolish the slave trade in Britain, was born here, and the city's photogenic Georgian streets have drawn film productions including The Crown and Enola Holmes 2. The Deep aquarium and the Ferens Art Gallery — which hosted the Turner Prize in 2017, when Hull was UK City of Culture — anchor a broader arts offer.
