More about this scene
Large mansions were built here for the wealthy merchants from the prosperous port of Hull. Ferriby House dates from 1775, and both Ferriby Hall and the manor house still stand. However, Aston Hall, built by the grandfather of William Wilberforce, the anti-slavery MP, was demolished in 1970, even though it was in good repair. Here looking towards the village we see two cottages built in 1787 (left). On the right is the schoolhouse of 1855, later the National School from 1868 to 1877. It later became a kindergarten and is now private housing.
