The bridge over the former Hornsea Branch Railway, recently refurbished and painted in the livery of the 'Hull & Hornsea Railway Company'. It is a good example of a small cast iron bridge that ceased to be built after 1881. Bears the legend: 'S & T. Crawshaw Contractors / 1863 Close Ayre & Nicholson Phoenix Foundry York / C.

Hull and Hornsea Railway

The Hull and Hornsea Railway was a branch line which connected the city of Kingston upon Hull with the seaside town of Hornsea. Wikipedia: LinkExternal link The line was officially opened on 28 March 1864, with trains departing from Wilmington railway station. From 1 June 1864 traffic travelled along the newly doubled Victoria Dock Branch into Paragon Station. Closure of the line came as a direct result of the Beeching Report. The last passenger train ran on 19 October 1964. Goods traffic continued to use the line as far as Hornsea Bridge until 3 May 1965.

Sutton Village Conservation Area, Kingston upon Hull

Sutton on Hull retains the character of a traditional village with winding streets of mediaeval origin overlooked by a 14th century church and some property boundaries recalling the mediaeval open field system. In the19th century, proximity to Kingston upon Hull led to the development of institutional buildings and big houses for wealthy residents from the city. During the course of the mid to late 20th century the village became surrounded by modern housing estates. It does, however, retain extensive areas of green space with many trees and bushes throughout.

The extent of the Conservation Area is defined here: LinkExternal link comprising: Albert Terrace, Barbara Robson Playing Field and Aquagreen, Chamberlain Close, Chamberlain Court, Chamberlain Street: 1-15 (odds) and 10-16 (evens), Church Close, Church Mount, Church Street, College Street, High Trees Mount, Holly Mount, Hornbeams Court, Kingfisher Rise, Kirk Close, Leads Road: Mona House and West Parade, Lowgate, Lowgate Close, Mount Pleasant, Potterill Lane, Priestgate, Providence Terrace, Rutland Terrace, Saltshouse Road: 350-378 (evens) and 351-375 (odds), The Avenue: Cramond Lodge and 2a & 2b, Watson Street, Woodside.
