From Grosvenor Mill and the River Hull by Andy Hazell

Andy Hazell is a Public Artist, Automatist, Photographer, Film-Maker and friend, who’s been a supporter and advocate of the Open Bridges project from the beginning. Andy contributed a chapter to our book, A River Full of Stories, about his life and times living at Grosvenor Mill – a four storey linseed crushing mill on the River Hull, built in 1828 on Wincolmlee which, for over a century, overlooked Scott Street Bridge.

Andy has recently unearthed another fabulous set of photographs, in the gallery below, of the river traffic running to and fro below his kitchen window that includes barges, dry docks, tankers and coasters, plus the delivery by barge of one of the Stoneferry cantilevers through Scott Street Bridge.

All photographs are by, and copyright, Andy Hazell.

This is the 300^th post on the blog, so thanks to Andy and everyone who’s contributed to, and supported this project, over the years.

Look out for the second post tomorrow featuring Andy’s night time photography with a particular focus on Yorkshire Dry Dock and you can find out more about Andy and his work here: http://www.andyhazell.co.uk/
