MATERIALS: yellow brick with ashlar dressings and slate roof with two ridge and two side wall stacks.
EXTERIOR: plinth, first-floor band, traceried bargeboards with collars to main gables. two storeys; eight-window range. Windows are mainly plain sashes. In the centre, a through-eaves dormer with two sashes, flanked by a single sash to left and a paired sash to right. Below, a full-width lean-to canopy covering a central square bay window, three lights. To left, a half-glazed door and to right, a commemorative plaque. Gabled wings have two windows on each floor.
HISTORY: this complex of orphan homes and ancillary buildings was built 1895-1902 by the Port of Hull Society and endowed by various benefactors whose names are attached to the various buildings. The Port of Hull Society for the Religious Instruction of Seamen was founded in 1821. The society established the Sailors’ Orphans Institution in 1836, but it did not have a permanent home until the Park Street orphanage was built in 1868-9, largely funded by (Sir) Titus Salt of Saltaire. The orphanage in Park Street was sold in 1897, by which time all the children were accommodated in the new complex on Cottingham Road.
