The oldest continuous school in the city is Hull Grammar School which originated circa 1340. From 1583 to 1878 it was housed in South Church Side; from 1878 to 1892 in Baker Street. A new building was erected in Leicester Street in 1892, accommodating the school until 1953, when it moved to Bricknell Avenue.
