The Beverley Gate

Very interesting to look at, but unfortunately it tends to be overrun with Goths and broken glass.
The steps are quite steep, so keep an eye on your little ones.
Shame, as it has a lot of potential.

Interesting to look at and an intersting history behind it, but when you live in Hull and walk past it almost every day, you sort of forget its there. Theres always a lot of children and teenagers running wild on it which I think is a bit disrespectful to be honest, they don’t appreciate it!

well a good place to use as a play pen whilst waiting for the bus, if you can get there through the mochers and goths lol, as seems to be the in hang out place lol xmx

This was excavated a few years ago and the foundations can be seen. good place to sit eat your sarnie from herbies.

In 1642 King Charles I traveled from York to Hull to seize the city for its considerable arms that had been left after the Scottish War. Sir John Hotham (see Ye Old White Hart: plotting room) ordered the gates to be closed refusing the King entry to the town — an act that is thought to have triggered the English Civil War. Beverley Gate was demolished in 1776 to make way for the development of Queens Dock. (Now Queens Gardens)
