At the junction of Pinfold Street and Treeton Road, it was built in 1843 as a superintendent’s house with cells. It was designed by Henry Lockwood, who erected similar buildings in Driffield and Market Weighton. He was also the architect of Trinity House in Hull and, with his partner William Mawson, designed the model industrial town at Saltaire in West Yorkshire.
