First railway station in Hull. The "Manor House Street" station was built by the Hull & Selby railway company and opened in 1840. Here seen as a goods depot.

Area being cleared for the erection of "Telephone House" for the Hull Corporation Telephone Department.

About here in the open air market was a well patronised fish and chip stall. Its wonderful smells pervaded the whole market. Report as Inappropriate	Hargow	Friday 20th of February 2015 08:53:57 PM
I too have fond memories of "Bob Carver" fish and chips in the big tent in the area alongside Holy Trinity church. When that market was moved, they acquired premises in Trinity House Lane and Chapel Street. Report as Inappropriate	John Wass	Wednesday 22nd of April 2015 02:39:01 PM
