Former Fire Station

The former fire station, built around 1860, is located on Hall Street in Kingston upon Hull. It is constructed of red brick, featuring blue and white brick and ashlar dressings, topped with a hipped slate roof that has various brick stacks. The building stands two storeys tall and has a five-window range. The ground-floor windows are boarded up, and there are five blocked round-headed windows adorned with a decorative coloured brick sill band and impost band. Below these, there is a central round-headed window flanked by segment-headed carriage arches, with single round-headed windows beyond. All these openings are highlighted with coloured brick bands and heads. Notably, the left carriage arch features carved horses' heads on the impost blocks and keystone, while the right arch displays firemen's heads in the same positions.
