The Earle and the Keyworth families are responsible for most of the public and monumental sculptures to be found in the city.

William Day Keyworth Jr (1843-1902), the son of William Day Keyworth Sr (1817-1897),

The Charterhouse was originally a Carthusian monastery and almshouse in Kingston upon Hull, built outside the town's medieval walls in 1378. The hospital building survived the Dissolution of the Monasteries but the priory was destroyed in 1538. The structure of the hospital was destroyed in 1642 before the first siege of the town during the English Civil War. A replacement was built in 1645, and again in 1780; the buildings function as an almshouse with an attached chapel.
