Just an update on the Hull History Centre. The website says there will be a 6 days a week LIMITED opening service from Autumn 2009 but doesn't say when in Autumn 1009. It will be fully open in early 2010.
http://www.hullhistorycentre.org.uk/ - this will give you the proposed opening hours in 2010 and will presumably give the opening date.

The website looks good and easy to navigate, although I've already spotted a spelling mistake - seperately instead of separately.  I couldn't do a search though, I get the following message:
Failed to connect to DScribe server 'localhost'. Client cannot open connection to server
I assume the search engines are not up and running yet.

Gosh thanks for the prompt reply.I am still living in the area and remember the building before it was knocked down. I will try and get a picture but local information was the building which was demolished some time ago and became a government building was the site of the orphanage origionally.
If you have further info I will look into it.
Also there are records held by Hull City Council archives, which I have seen once and could look at again
Regards
Simon

I think that if you look at the picture of the polar bear which I use to this day the orphanage was to the next building to the left?
