Report - Former swedish mission church - Hull - April 2013

[Bugsuperstar]

History on this place is hard to dig up. All i can really find out is that it was built for the Swedish Mission in 1948 to serve Swedish and Finnish mariners traveling through the port of Hull. The Swedish Mission then turned attentions more towards London where it had become more popular. This would explain the cross on the facade. The building was later converted for commercial purposes and was last used as a printers.

I've had my eye on the place for a long time, curiosity and luck finally came together and i managed to get a look inside. I didn't expect much but it was a shame to see the state of things in there. Not much to see apart from some nice brutal staircases but if you don't look you'll never know.

Visited with PaulUE

Thanks for looking.​
