On our second day in Hull, we drove up to Beverley, which is a very pretty town, 10 miles north. Got parking in one of the town squares, (we were early), and walked along what is becoming a very welcome addition to a lot of towns , and that is where they have closed off streets and created pedestrian walks. It really does enhance the shopping/looking experience and makes it easy for everyone. Beverley Minster is also very nice, with the most charming "tune" on it's tower bells, chiming the hour.
By the time our alloted (parking) time was up there were masses of people (it was a Friday), and we were glad to get away.
Went very slowly into Hull town centre, which was starting to seem like a bad idea, but found a multi-story carpark, and had a look around an enormous shopping mall, covered in glass roof, and the largest Tesco's (think Big W, but muuuuuuuch better!), and got some T-shirts, coffee, and some milk powdery stuff (yuk), but at least it gets us a coffee when we want it.
Back to the very nice Premier Inn, and a great meal of beef stew with mash, and peas, and cheese cobbler (damper). Very yummy.
Next (hopeful) stop, the east coast and Whitby...
