History of Hull: Hull Castle and The Citadel

The little-known story of Hull's Tudor Castle, the Catholic rebellion that brought Henry VIII's attention to Hull. and the 17th century Citadel that it morphed into after the English Civil War.

For more information on Hull's defences, here's a link to my video on the medieval town walls;

And for more on the history of North Bridge, originally built alongside the Castle, I also did a video about that, too!

If you're anything like me, viewing historical Ordnance Survey maps side by side with modern satellite views will certainly eat up far too much of your time!
