And finally, our fourth short film takes a look back at the TH Scheme itself, and the amazing restoration work completed in the last decade. All films created by the wonderful @novastudios1 youtu.be/iGi-utZ_9cc?si=9ps1…

Our third film looked at Beverley Road's incredibly rich musical and cultural heritage - no wonder then that Hull has ambitions to become a UNESCO City of Music! youtu.be/8V5pflDgUJI?si=NwDA…

1/2 🍿Huge thanks to everyone who came to our Blitz film screenings today at Hull History Centre and shared their family's stories, and to Angela, Granddaughter of Edward Crummay, who was blown through the auditorium on the night of the bombing. Luckily he wasn't seriously hurt!

Well done to our colleagues @bevroadTH 👏 What brilliant restoration works just opposite our site! @HeritageFundUK @Hullccnews
Following on from our post last week, here are some 'before' & 'after' photographs of boundary restoration works at Trafalgar Street Church. Like at 53-55 Beverley Road, Trafalgar Street Church once had boundary walls & railings separating the property from the street.

Luckily, one of the Church's original gates has survived. We were able to refurbish this & reinstate missing gates and railings based on its design. Works have been completed thanks to @Hullccnews @HeritageFundUK & National Lottery players 🤞 What a difference it makes!

Take a look at these 'before & after' photographs of 53-55 Beverley Road, where traditional boundary railings & walls have recently been restored. The works were based on historical archival photographs & surviving parts of this Grade II property, thanks to @HeritageFundUK 🤞

Have you see the restoration of historic boundary walls and railings at 49-55 Beverley Road? Front gardens were a special feature of this suburban area in the 1800s. Restored thanks to @HeritageFundUK & National Lottery players 🤞

The new railings are based on surviving parts of the original structures, and we've rebuilt brick walls and piers with original materials where possible. One of the gates at Trafalgar Street Church was still in place and has been refurbished as part of the works.

As excavations continue, so do new discoveries on site! Here, we've uncovered a chamber not on the original drawings, which will now create an additional interpretation area. The stained wall areas show the height of earth & rubble that have hidden it since the Blitz in 1941!
