Tranby Croft

Tranby Croft is a large Grade II listed Victorian country house[1] and estate at Anlaby, near Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England.

The house is built in white brick with ashlar dressing in three storeys with a nine bay frontage.

In 1890 the house was the location of the royal baccarat scandal, which involved accusations that Sir William Gordon-Cumming, 4th Baronet, had cheated at illegal card games attended by Albert Edward, Prince of Wales.

In Moonraker (1955) by Ian Fleming, Hugo Drax cheating at cards is characterised as "Tranby Croft all over again".

Hull High School for Girls moved to Tranby Croft after the Second World War and Hull Grammar School moved to Tranby Croft from its Cottingham site in 2005.
