In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Wilmington like this:
WILMINGTON, a r. station, with telegraph, in E. R. Yorkshire; on the Hull and Hornsea railway, in the NE outskirts of Hull.
The location is that of the former Wilmington railway station, as given by the "Disused Stations" web site (http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/w/wilmington/index.shtml, accessed 15th Oct 2011).
