Hull, also known as Kingston upon Hull, is a city of about 250,000 inhabitants located on the northern bank of the Humber estuary in northern England. It has been unitary authority since 1996. Prior to then, Hull was a district of the now defunct administrative county of Humberside, which had been formed in 1974. After the abolition of Humberside in 1996, Hull was placed for ceremonial purposes in the county of the East Riding of Yorkshire, having been a county borough in the East Riding until 1974.
