Frontage, Hull Corporation Pier booking office 
 This building is one of those that has the accolade of being one of a small handful of railway stations that are not actually located on or near a railway line! A week before its closure due to the opening of the Humber bridge, Hull Corporation Pier station is seen located opposite the waterfront with its namesake pier directly behind me. The building is a grand affair with the Manchester Sheffield and Lincolnshire (MS&L) insignia crest carved from stone contained within a trefoil above a non-working clock. Just in case Victorian travellers did not know the name of the company that was conveying them the plain stone band above the ground floor windows to which the Sealink board is attached once had the words 'Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway' written in relief stone stretching the full length of the building. Following closure, the building remained empty for many years but in the early 2000s, it was converted into apartments. Also notice the period cars parked at the front of the building, a blue Morris Marina van is parked behind a rather nice-looking Reliant Regal with a very tatty Mk.I Cortina on the right-hand side that doesn't look as though it is long for the roads!
