Long time since I ventured onto the footbridge at Strickland Street, off Hessle Road ... a bridge to nowhere as the gate by the dock is padlocked, what happened to the right-of-way through to St. Andrew's?

I've been meaning to try for these views for a while but the unsavoury nature of the area has put me off. You've timed it right too as there is usually great piles of RDF on the quayside blocking the views.

How dare you refer to the Hessle Road area as unsavoury! My missus will be after you ....

Not so much Hessle road but the area around that footbridge - might venture out tomorrow night after work with Bev as a guard :)

Aye, it's a bit messy on the approach but fine up on top, nice view of the A63!
