Stoneferry (archaic Stone-Ferry, or Stone ferry) is a suburb of Kingston upon Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It was formerly a small hamlet on the east bank of the River Hull, the site of a ferry, and, after 1905, a bridge. The area is primarily industrial, and is situated on the east bank of the river, as well as close by areas on the west bank.

Stoneferry Road (A1033 section) travels south through Stoneferry and Wilmington towards the centre of Hull. Ferry Lane (eastern end of the A1165) runs east for a short distance from Stoneferry bridge to meet Stoneferry Road.

Geography

The boundaries of the Stoneferry area are approximately formed by the River Hull to the west beyond which are the areas of Sculcoates (south-west) and Clough Road/Newland (west); to the north is the post 1970s Sutton Fields Industrial, with Bransholme housing estate beyond. To the north-east and east are the housing estates of Sutton Ings and Garden Village; whilst to the south is the industrial area of Wilmington, of similar character to Stoneferry.Ordnance Survey 1:25000 2006. Also §#History

The A1033 Stoneferry Road runs north–south through the area, connected with the east end of the A1165 Clough Road/Ferry Lane via the bridges over the River Hull. Chamberlain Road, running east to the Garden Village is the areas other main road. The Hull Docks Branch runs south-east through the southern part of the area, and also has a crossing of the river.

The Stoneferry area contains a large amount of industrial development, generally focused along the banks of the River Hull, which includes manufacturing, warehousing and retail sites. The eastern part has some housing, including late Victoria era/early Edwardian era, pre- and post-Second World War, and late 20th century houses. Also in the eastern part are some managed natural spaces.

=Geology=

There is an outcropping bed of harder rock or other agglomerate in the river bed (which is usually clay, silt and till on the River Hull) near Stoneferry.{{cite web|url= http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/static/documents/Leisure/Hull_strategy_consultation_responses.pdf| title = River Hull Flood Risk Management Strategy consultation comments and responses| date = March 2011 | access-date = 12 August 2011|publisher = Environment Agency| at = Section references: H7, H41, H47}}{{cite web|url = http://www.eastriding.gov.uk/public_reports/TheCabinet/20July2010/Hull%20and%20Coastal%20Streams%20Catchment%20Flood%20Management%20Plan%20Consultation%20and%20River%20Hull%20Flood%20Risk%20Management%20Strategy%20Consultation.pdf| title = Hull and Coastal Streams Catchment Flood Management Plan Consultation and River Hull Flood Risj Management Strategy Consultation| publisher = East Riding of Yorkshire Council| date = 20 July 2010| at = section 3.6|access-date=30 June 2014}}

In 1847 it was 31½ ; in 1852, 30¼.

A cholera outbreak occurred in Hull in 1849, and sources of a better supply were sought; Thomas Wickstead and others had maintained further water could not be got from the springs near Anlaby.

The initial cost of the Stoneferry waterworks was £58,000 (with two 60 hp steam engines), this eventually rose to £92,808 with two further engines of 170 and 220 hp, and additional water treatment facilities.{{cite book|title = General and concise history and description of the town and port of Kingston-upon-Hull | first= James Joseph |last=Sheahan| publisher = Simpkin, Marshall & Co.|year= 1864 |url = https://archive.org/details/generalconcisehi00shea|pages = [https://archive.org/details/generalconcisehi00shea/page/528 528], 539–553}} Around 1891 the pumping station at Stoneferry ceased to be used to pump water to Hull; by 1910 the works was in disuse.Ordnance survey, 1910, 1:2500

During the latter part of the 19th century the area between Hull and Stoneferry began to be developed industrially, and in 1882 Stoneferry became part of the municipal borough of Kingston upon Hull; the industrialisation continued leading to a completely industrial landscape along the River Hull banks and in Stoneferry itself by the 20th century. The Hull and Hornsea Railway was opened passing roughly north through the eastern extreme of the Stoneferry area in the 1860s and the Hull and Barnsley Railway was constructed across the southern part of the area in the 1880s, curving south-east from a crossing of the River Hull.See Hull and Hornsea Railway and Hull and Barnsley Railway. Also Ordnance Survey. Sheet 226, 1852–3; Sheet 226.SE 1888

Urban development beyond the original hamlet took place during the decades at the beginning of the 20th century (1890–1910) around the south-western end of Leads Road, and on Lorraine Street.Ordnance Survey. Sheet 226.11 1 mile to 25-inch; 1890, 1910, 1929. Further housing development took place starting in the late 1930s between Stoneferry Road and the Foredyke Stream (Woodhall Street area), and between the Fordyke and the Hull and Hornsea railway line (Rockford Avenue area); as well as around previously developed housing; and later along Sutton Road to the north of Stoneferry.Ordnance Survey, 1:10560, 1938, 1956–7, 1969 The development along Sutton Road was demolished in the 1970s, and replaced by the Sutton Fields industrial estate. In the 1990s a small housing estate was built between Stoneferry Road and the former Foredyke Drain, north of the Stoneferry railway branch. As of 2012 the area is a mixture of mostly industrial usage, as well as housing, and green spaces.Ordnance survey, 1:10000, 1973–7; 1982–4; 1992–3. 1:25000, 2006 In 2011 the area 'Rockford Fields', remnant of the pastureland of Sutton Ings was designated as a local nature reserve.Sources:
