The original part of the property is understood to date from 1932 and provides the original appliance bays with ancillary office, administration, stores and welfare accommodation to the first floor and two side wings.
The main building is of two storey brick construction with stone detailing under a pitched tile roof. The side wings are of similar construction, but under flat roofs. The training tower is situated to the rear of the main building. The main building also includes a small basement area. To the side there is a more modern workshop building of single storey brick construction under a pitched profile sheet roof.
Externally the site is open plan to the front boundary with the remainder marked primarily by palisade fencing. The property is not a Listed Building but is on the Hull City Council “Local Buildings List” due to its architecture and historic interest.
An indicative scheme was prepared a few years ago providing part conversion / part new build and with a total of 25 apartments
providing a mixture of one and two bedroom units. The scheme was prepared to suit either traditional apartments or retirement living. The building also lends itself to a mixed use commercial and residential scheme
