 Self catering accommodation
in Grimsby. Grimsby is located on the Humber Estuary on the north-east
coast, approximately 30 miles from Hull. Grimsby is easily reached
by road, rail, air or sea and is the main town in North East
Lincolnshire. Grimsby was the world's largest fishing port in
the 19th century. Today, the port is a major centre of food processing,
specialising in the import of Danish and Norwegian products.
Much of the town has been rebuilt with pedestrian malls and good
facilities. Grimsby is traditionally strongly associated with
the sea fishing industry and has the largest fish docks in the
United Kingdom, but as a result of the Cod Wars and reduced fishing
quotas, this industry has been in decline for many years. In
recent years the frozen food industry has become a large part
of Grimsby's economy and new industries such as light engineering,
chemicals and plastics have grown. The port is located only 10
km from the open sea on the Humber estuary. Also see Grimsby
& Grimsby attractions.
