Social Housing in Hull – 1800-2000 – by Godfrey Holmes

From the workhouse to the housing of working people; from garden villages to vast estates of municipal housing; from doss houses to tenements, the City of Hull has never been short of social housing initiatives – yet Kingston-upon-Hull is currently very short of social housing!

In this talk, local historian Godfrey Holmes attempts to span two centuries of housing families who would otherwise not be

housed.
