Hi
if you google Gilbert street Hessle road its comes up with Hessle Road Network which is a Hull Play Resource Centre
Also says the Hessle road area of is an urban location less tha two miles from Hull City Centre, Hessle road covers parts of Newington and St Andrews
 Other articles on the site but didn`t notice a map Hope this helps

Running off Hessle Road were Neptune Street, Gilbert Street and Ropery Street -in that order.

You may need to use the zoom facility to create the 1910 street map. You can just make out Gilbert Street.

It's not marked on this 1911 map - but off Hessle Road and between Neptune and Ropery you can see a short stretch leading nowhere (there's a line across at the end).  This is/was Gilbert Street.

The first link is only delivering the search screen.

Put Kingston upon Hull in "Town Name" and click on search". Select 1910 map. You you'll need to scroll to the right area of Hull (south and slightly west).
