Maister House
Heritage Open Day: Maister House is the only property in East Yorkshire owned by the National Trust and is not normally open to the public This Georgian house sits on the west side of High Street in the 'old town' area of Hull. It represents one of the few surviving reminders of the thriving Baltic Sea Trade enjoyed by the port of Hull in the 17th and 18th Centuries.
After a tragic fire had badly damaged his earlier house, in 1743 wealthy Hull merchant Henry Maister commissioned architect Joseph Page to design a new one for him.
The exterior result is a plain brick facade that reflects the typical Palladian architectural fashion of the mid 18th Century.
