About

Southcoates West sits to the south‑east of Kingston upon Hull city centre and is one of the city’s electoral wards. The area is principally residential, with long runs of red‑brick terraced housing built around the turn of the 20th century to house dock workers. A main commercial spine runs along Holderness Road, where small shops, takeaways and a post office serve day‑to‑day needs. Public transport links run frequently into the centre, and local primary schools and a few community halls provide focal points for neighbourhood activity.

The ward’s streets show the regular pattern that grew up with industrial expansion on Hull’s east side, and pockets of allotments and small green spaces sit between housing blocks. Local community groups organise events at the centre and around school playgrounds, and council services are administered from nearby civic points within the ward. As an administrative unit of Hull City Council, Southcoates West combines everyday shopping, school provision and a clear link to the city’s dockland past.
