Right and centre of this image is shown Christie’s Wharf up to and including the two buildings shown with pillared extensions over the timber walkway of the river front. Immediately to the left of this is Bishop Lane Staith. Further left yet flanking the building with the roof window is the little passageway that contains the façade of Crowle House c1664, one of Hull’s more hidden gems. The author, along with many others over the years attempted to photograph these two notoriously difficult features to properly portray, the contrasts being so very marked. Any readers can see from these I mean! Crowle House ‘Staith’ located at number 41 High Street, opposite Stewart’s Yard Entrance.
