One of 10 former council houses on the Preston Road estate which were offered as canvases to street artists from all over the country on 28/29 July 2018. The houses are all boarded up awaiting demolition in around six months. The project was an extension of a previous initiative known as the 'Bankside Gallery'. This offers walls in unsightly areas near the River Hull to spray paint artists in the hope that it will enhance their visual appeal and attract visitors. It was set up following the appearance of a 'Banksy' mural nearby in January 2018. See also Image] etc.
