I cannot find anything on the web about the use of the stones to build Hull's defences, but it is what we were always told. Any proof welcome!.

This is recorded in the letters and papers of Henry V111 Foreign and domestic;
There were also masons and plumbers stripping stone and lead from Meaux Abbey, while other masons were employed reshaping stone for re-use at Drypool (LPF & D Henry VIII 1542, vol 34)
