The Hull People's Memorial, Paragon Street, Hull. An unusual and striking memorial commemorates Hull's civilian deaths in two World Wars. The inscriptions at the base are poignant and the one I chose to depict particularly so. Delivered with, I think, a little bitterness and understandably so, it alludes to the adjacent inscription which reflects on the bombing of London and Coventry which were usually named in reports whilst Hull, itself heavily bombed, remained anonymous. 200_4_P1030683CE

The A63 Improvement Project in Hull is underway and will continue until at least Spring 2025. The most visible sign of progress so far is the pedestrian bridge across Castle Street linking Hull Marina and Fruit Market with the Princes Quay retail and leisure complex on the north side of the road. After Covid delays and a vote on the naming, it opened in March 2021 as Murdoch's Connection, named in honour of Dr Mary Murdoch, Hull's first woman GP. 200_4_P1030678CE
