Driveways for Hessle's mixed streets

Hessle has three distinct characters: the period cottages and terraces of the old town towards the foreshore, the interwar semis climbing the hill, and newer developments on the edges. The old town suits gravel and sett-look paving, the semis take brindle block paving and tarmac well, and the newer houses lean towards resin bound.

Practical points for Hessle plots

Hessle's hill means falls and drainage matter more than in flat Hull: a drive that sheds water towards the house needs a channel drain priced in. Older cottages near the conservation area deserve sympathetic materials and, where relevant, a check with East Riding of Yorkshire Council, which handles Hessle's planning and dropped kerbs.

Typical Hessle prices

A two-car drive of 45 to 55m2 typically quotes £2,200 to £5,500: gravel from £30/m2, tarmac from £45/m2, block paving and resin from £70/m2.
