Archaeologists start work on Hull East Bank Urban Village project
- Published
Proposals to redevelop the East Bank site were approved by senior councillors in July
An archaeological dig is being carried out near Hull city centre as part of a multi-million pound regeneration project.
The work is taking place on the former Clarence Mill site to see if anything survives there of the city's physical history.
A community dig will also be conducted in the summer.
The East Bank Urban Village project will see up to 850 new homes built along the River Hull.
Hull City Council is looking for a lead developer to work on the project, near the Drypool Bridge, which covers an area the size of almost three football pitches.
The authority has also allocated £10m of the Levelling Up money it received from the government last year for the scheme.
