At the junction with Melrose Street, Nos.537 to 543 Anlaby Road, four identical houses, built late 1890s. The perimeter wall to No.539 carries the text: 'From which come zephyrs in Spring', which derives from an article on Newington in the Hull News, 2 June 1900. The quotation, in context, reads: "In the matter of health, Newington may be said to be almost at the foot of the East Riding Wolds, from which come zephyrs in Spring and Summer laden with the fragrance that usually associates itself with wood and pasture and cultivated gardens."
