representation
quantitative
Census- objective, longitudinal. However, it doesn't tell us the meaning of the place or peoples opinions. 51% white British population.
Index of Multiple Deprivation- takes in lots of socio economic factors, relative measure compared to the rest of the UK. Geospatial. 100% of Hessle rad scores 1 on the IMD
qualitative
maps tend to provide an objective representation of the area but there are choices of what to include and what to leave out which can make them subjective. Historical maps help us see growth.
Countermapping is when people produce their own maps informed by local knowledge. These maps provide factual information and a sense of place. However, everyone's maps will be slightly different as everyone has a different understanding of place based on their experiences.
Hessle road song by Dave Williams "they are tearing them all down now, its hitting people hard" "i miss those brave young fisher kids, coming home from shore" - experienced place, biased, sense of place, time change
Fishy business poem "and their family are their mates who lived on Hessle road" "fighting bitter cold with hope, a song and a smile"
Ada the braider poem- "no nets now hang across the terrace" "So to Ada the braider as she's braiding above, we'll blow her a kill and send her our love"

Creation of Hessle road
A plot of land off Coltman street was bought by a banker who built several houses. It became an affluent area, being occupied by rich professional people. Many wealthy merchants begun to emigrate from the town centre to the new large mansions in the developing cities around hull. This led to Hessle road being built, connecting the business centre of Hull and the new merchants mansions. During the 1870s Hessle road began to expand Westwards. The growth in trade is primerally responsible for this rapid growth as well as the opening of Albert docks as the influx of workers led to more housing development.

1970s cod wars
The 3rd cod war began in 1975 after Iceland declared a 200 miles exclusion zone around its waters to preserve fish stocks. However, the move was widely seen as illegal protectionism and produced intense protests from other European nations who's fleets had fished the seas of Iceland for centuries. The royal navy was deployed in force to protect British trawlers from being hounded by Icelandic boats, whose tactic pf cutting the nets of trawlers inside the 200mile exclusion zone was a breach of international law. Iceland eventually played its trump card, threatening to withdraw from NATO (North Atlantic Treaty organisation) Britain had to choice but to accept. Defeat in the cod war was catastrophic for ports like Hull and thousands of peoples livelihoods depended on it.
