HISTORY: this complex of orphan homes and ancillary buildings was built 1895-1902 by the Port of Hull Society, and endowed by various benefactors whose names are attached to the various buildings.The Port of Hull Society for the Religious Instruction of Seamen was founded in 1821. The society established the Sailors’ Orphans Institution in 1836, but it did not have a permanent home until the Park Street orphanage was built in 1868-9, largely funded by (Sir) Titus Salt of Saltaire. The orphanage in Park Street was sold in 1897, by which time all the children were accommodated in the new complex on Cottingham Road.
