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?

Does anyone know if there used to be a childrens home on Holderness Road in Hull? - we have recently bought a house there and in with the details of land registry bits, we received some former planning applications which included details to extend to accomodate 30 children plus staff! (1970s)

Will try and check when the new history centre opens next year but thought it was worth a post
