Summary[edit]

Description
English: The Hull & Withernsea Railway, Keyingham, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
Footpath and permitted bridleway along the track bed of the dismantled Hull to Withernsea railway line, approaching Station Road at the northern end of Keyingham village.
In July 1853 an Act was obtained for the building of the Hull & Withernsea Railway and prominent Hull businessman Anthony Bannister cut the first sod at nearby Kelsey Hill https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/216050 to open a gravel pit which would supply ballast for the line. The new rails were laid from a starting point near here and provided a means of transport to the sites where work was proceeding westward towards Victoria Dock, Hull and eastward towards Withernsea. The railway line was closed to passengers in October 1964 and closed down altogether in May 1965.
