This is the story of Hull's Fishing Heritage Centre established to keep alive what was once Hull's major industry.

This talk, given by Jerry Thompson, is about the ongoing work of a group of retired trawler men who helped to shape and build the reputation of Hessle Road as the home of the greatest deep-water fishing fleet in the World, and their work now, to keep alive the history and its present-day relevance to the city.
The Heritage Fishing Centre located in the Boulevard ,off Hessle road, is a great tribute to their work.
