Hull Marina, Kingston upon Hull
Hull Marina provides moorings for pleasure boats, former working craft such as keels and barges, and training vessels. It was opened in 1983 on the site of the redundant Railway Dock and Humber Dock, both of which had closed in 1968. The two docks are separated by a bascule pedestrian bridge which is raised to allow access for craft. The former Spurn lightship is moored in the marina as a museum.
