Hull was one of the
great ports of
medieval England…
…And by the late nineteenth century was the third largest port in Britain. Located in the Georgian home of the Blaydes family, prominent merchants and shipbuilders, Blaydes Maritime Centre has been a leading centre of research in maritime history for over 20 years. In this resonant heritage location, we host events, talks and projects to share the rich story of human interactions with the maritime environment.
