context_page_description: Southcoates is an urban area in the eastern part of Kingston upon Hull, England.
  A named habitation at Southcoates dates to at least the 11th century, during the medieval period the place was a small hamlet, associated with Drypool. The urban growth of Hull expanded over Southcoates in the late 19th and early 20th century, and the place subsequently gave its name to council wards.
  The area of Southcoates centred on the former village is predominantly urban housing. The southern part of the Southcoates area is adjacent to the Humber Estuary, and was originally wetlands; a large amount of land was reclaimed southwards on the foreshore during the construction of the Alexandra Dock in the 1880s; this land and adjacent areas are in predominantly industrial and dock use.
context_section_description: Excluding some minor infill housing developments in the late 1940s the pattern and scope of housing development in Southcoates remained essentially unchanged in the second half of the 20th century. Estcourt Street Infant School, and Alderman Cogan High School, were opened in 1954 and 1957 respectively. In 1955 St Aidan's church was consecrated. In 1957 a new chapel for the Primitive Methodists was built in Southcoates Lane, to replace the Hedon Road chapel which had been destroyed by bombing in 1941. In 1960 the site of the former Drypool and Southcoates cemetery and chapel was converted into a public garden. A new secondary school 'David Lister', began construction in 1963.
  In 1976 a serious three-day riot took place at Hull Prison.
  Southcoates Lane School was given listed building status in 1994. Crowle Street School was demolished 1996. Hedon Road maternity hospital closed in 2003, and was demolished. and David Lister School closed at the end of the 2012 academic year, having been scheduled for early closure and replacement under the Building Schools for the Future programme.
  In 2016 a 162 home residential development was given planning permission for the former barrel works site.
