The FS Smith drawing dates from 1882, and can be found in his books. The public house to the left of the building was the Sculcoates arms and was the only pub in hull with a police station next door. The photo was taken in 1921 and can be found in the excellent images of england: kingston upon hull, the 2nd selection. The book is by Paul Gibson and contains fantastic images of hull. If anyone wishes for images of Hull pubs, inns, hotels, landmarks or streets from the Victorian age to the present please get in touch. Regard Mike

Hi
I wonder if you might be able to tell me anything about my gt grandfather George Henry Chapman b1857. I think he joined about 1880 but not sure if it was Hull or from Burton Pidsea where he was born. I know he went through some ranks and have a picture of him in uniform but have yet to obtain much more detail and am not sure where to look.
Thanks
Jane

Hi Jane,
Yes George Henry Chapman Joined the Hull City Police on Sept 12th 1878 his collar number was PC 193 I dont know when he was promoted but his number was next issued to a John Crisp on Sept 7th 1885 which means he was promoted to Inspector prior to that date I do know that the treasure house Archives in Beverley has all the written details and would be pleased to help, they are very good Hope this helps, Rockofages

I hope I am doing this correctly. Not sure about all the buttons yet. I would just like to thank you both for this very quick reply. I posted the message before I went to bed and there it was when I woke up. Very impressive. I will now make further enquiries.
Regards

Hi ,Gosh this bandwagon is getting bigger. Could I be cheeky also and ask for a look up ?. My Great Granpa was a Richard (fendley) Cleveland and when he retired he was a Detective Inspector I understand he joined the police force in 1900 and his number was 42. I would love to know if there would be any pics and when he retired ?. Thanx Rox.
