Still Occupied
Images on this site are arranged into rough areas by location as in my book 'Still Occupied', available on Blurb. Eventually this site will contain all the images in that book and more.
Mouth of the River Hull, looking up-river from the end of Nelson St towards the tidal barrier which had been built the previous year, although everyone in Hull says that they forgot to lower it on the first occasion it was needed. Since then it has prevented flooding on many occasions, with recent floods arising from surface water rather than tidal ingress. The barrier was upgrade recently.
