Exploring Bransholme

Bransholme is an area or housing estate situated on the north-eastern side of Kingston upon Hull, England. The name Bransholme comes from an old Scandinavian word meaning Brand's water meadow. This blog hopes to bring together research about the area, its history and its residents. This research will inform the arts strand of the NHS' health centre planned for Bransholme.

Hull Times, Friday 23rd November 1973
