Gilbert Scott Buildings in Kingston-Upon-Hull



This is a view from the rear showing the unique aspect indicating the detail of the rear of the last surviving example of George Gilbert Scott's work. This is of national and international importance as it is the last example of Gilbert Scott's domestic " Queen Anne" style architecture in the UK, most likely the world, It is vitally important to maintain the open rear aspect to appreciate this fine example of his work.

The main rear view is under threat from development which would remove this unique aspect - a feature of which would be lost to the world and especially, children of Hull.
