The Humber

The Humber Hotel stood along Humber Street on the way to the docks. Built at the end of the Georgian era, the Humber was rectangular in plan with a low angled hipped roof, brick stacks and projecting eaves.

Along the ground floor, overlooking Cleethorpe Road, the hotel had a shopfront with pilasters, fascia and projecting cornice with a second entrance from Humber Street. A mixture of marginal sash windows and other multi-pane examples were arranged along each elevation's ground and upper floor.

In 1937, the brewery Hewitt built a new Humber Hotel in the hotel's original gardens, and the old building became a pair of houses. The new Humber Hotel was built in a loose Neo-Georgian style with classical motifs, such as the corner segmental arch with pediment and short flat portico entrance with a mixture of stone dressings and red brick.

In the 1980s, the original Humber Hotel was demolished to make way for a car park. The new Humber Hotel continued to trade until the early 2000s when it was turned into a shop.
