Grimsby, Lincolnshire【4K】| Town Centre Walk 2021

Join me for a walk around the centre of the historic port town of Grimsby, once the largest fishing port in the world, and home to around 1,000 years of enthralling heritage, from its founding by the Vikings to a push to reinvigorate the town after the fall of its traditional industry.

On our walk around Grimsby, we pass a number of interesting walks, including Grimsby Minster (St. James' Church), St. James' Square, Grimsby Fishermen Memorial, Old Market Place, Freshney Place shopping centre, Victoria Street, The Plaza (formerly Fisherhead Square), The Havelok Seal (Great Grimsby Seal), Grimsby Central Library, The Five Guardians of Knowledge, the former Grimsby Corporation Grammar School, Grimsby Town Hall, The Barge Inn, Fisherhead Quay, Alexandra Dock, the River Freshney, Grimsby Fishing Heritage Museum, The Ross Tiger, Corporation Bridge and Victoria Mills.
