We had a great time doing the prison break room, very exciting and interesting puzzles:) Simon was very friendly and made sure we had the best time. Will definitely be back :)

A Victorian shopping arcade in Hull City Centre. Paragon Arcade was originally built in 1896, designed by architect Sir Alfred Gelder. Local landlord Allenby Commercial purchased the Arcade in late 2017 and have been delicately refurbishing it back to it's former glory. It’s now become Hull’s go-to-place for quality independent shopping & events.

The permanent displays at Wilberforce House include journals and items that belonged to William Wilberforce, including original costume. There are many significant items linked to slavery and the campaign to abolish it. Recently opened galleries contain wonderful displays of local crafstmanship, clock-making, Hull silver collection, the East Yorkshire Regiment and Edwardian Hull Last entry 15 minutes prior to closing
We visited based on the recommendation of a BBC book of 100 places that shaped the UK. The museum is based in William Wilberforce’s family home & is now within a vibrant museum quarter in Hull. There is a wealth of information, set out attractively & accessibly, on the house, the history of slavery, Wilberforce’s political battle to end the slave trade, the Middle Passage, the slave experience, the aftermath of slavery, African culture & contemporary slavery. We didn’t manage to see everything in the time that we had. A great visit & it’s free!
