The former St Mary's Parish Hall, No.83 Folkestone Street. The proceeds from the sale of Sculcoates parish school, built 1852, closed 1908 Image financed the parish hall. Above the entrance door is the legend: 'Saint Mary's + Parish Hall'. The building was sold in 1973, becoming a joiner's workshop. At an unspecified time, the hall was home to Hull Spiritualist Church. Although the building appears to be unused, a dormer window, facing south, bears the text 'Woodys fire surrounds, marble kitchen units'.
