Pickering Park is a park in the western suburbs of Kingston upon Hull, on the north side of Hessle Road, near Anlaby, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.

Description and facilities

Pickering Park is a council run park of {{convert|25.62|acre|m2|abbr=on}} with an ornamental and sensory gardens, aviaries, and a playground and paddling pool. Sport facilities at the park are four football pitches, and an 80 peg lake for fishing.[1]

History

The park was opened 13 July 1911, a gift from Christopher Pickering, a successful trawler owner, and benefactor;[2][3] part of a model village development including almshouses and a children's home.[4] The city's first nautical museum, the Museum of Fisheries and Shipping opened in Pickering Park in 1912,[5] later to move to the former Hull Dock company offices and become the Hull Maritime Museum.

The associated almshouses,[6] the former museum (as of 2011 a boxing club),[7] and a related pumping station,[8] are all listed buildings, as are the original iron park gates,[9] which are one of the few early 20th century ornamental iron structures in Hull to have survived the Second World War drive for scrap iron.[10][11]
