About Fencing in Hull
Hull, formally Kingston upon Hull, traces its origins to a port founded by the monks of Meaux Abbey in the late twelfth century to export wool, later renamed Kingston upon Hull in 1299 and growing over eight centuries into a major fishing, whaling and trading centre. By 1800 it ranked as the third busiest British port after London and Liverpool, and the city's most famous son, William Wilberforce, born here in 1759, led the parliamentary campaign to abolish the Atlantic slave trade, commemorated today by a 31 metre column bearing his statue in the city centre.
