Newland Park blue plaque unveiling

John Fareham and John Abbott report that the ceremonial unveiling of the blue plaque on the house in Newland Park which was the wartime Telephone Department head office will take place on Tuesday November 28th.


As promised we pass on the date for this event, which has been chosen to mark the anniversary of Hull Telephones originally coming on line, and which will probably be attended by the author of a forthcoming related book.  At least one of us will be in attendance at an event which, as the end of City of Culture year gradually draws closer, will be of interest in reminding all of us that, vibrant and interesting as City of Culture is and will remain, this city’s past is also of considerable interest and well worth commemorating.
