Cooplands, Trinity House, 71 Paragon Street, Kingston upon Hull, 2013 • This is a branch of the bakery that bought Skeltons, featured yesterday. Apparently the big yellow tiled panel once held a sign of some kind.

Hi – Loving the visit to my old home town…it is such fertile ground for your elegy to a lost world. In answer to your query the yellow tiled panel had the Skeltons logo emblazoned across it.
Thanks for solving the mystery! Wish I had walked past it on my first Hull visit (when Skeltons were still in existence).
A trivia fact attached to this cafe is that the cafe had a monument to Arthur Lucan, (Old Mother Riley), who died at the Tivoli theatre, the site of which this cafe was built on. A very surreal sight to look at whilst eating your tea and cake!
There is still a cafe there – is the monument still there?
