Anlaby Road, Kingston upon Hull

Once a major Victorian thoroughfare, at its eastern end, it is the backbone of a district of Hull containing a warren of side streets with a high proportion of urban decay and run-down and slum housing in the process of regeneration.

The construction of a modern flyover taking traffic over the main railway line greatly altered the character of the area.

The Anlaby Road front has a slightly recessed centre with a pedimented gable containing a mosaic designed by Alfred Garth Jones and executed by the Bromsgrove Guild.

Today, NAPA offers classes in musical theatre, drama and dance to young people from 11–19 years of age.
