In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Southcoates like this:
SOUTHCOATES, a township, with a r. station, in Drypool parish, E. R. Yorkshire; on the Hulland Holderness railway, in the E vicinity of Hull. Acres, 1,050. Real property, £9,888; of which £18 are in gasworks. Pop. in 1851, 1,673; in 1861, 2,804. Houses, 580. The increase of pop. arose from the opening of two large iron-ship-building establishments.
