About The Lawns
The Lawns, situated in Cottingham, East Riding of Yorkshire, is a notable former student accommodation complex for the University of Hull, comprising seven Grade II* listed halls and the Lawns Centre, which served as the catering and social hub for nearly 1,000 students. Built in the 1960s by the architectural firm Gillespie, Kidd and Coia, the site ceased operations as student housing at the conclusion of the 2018/2019 academic year, presenting potential opportunities for redevelopment or alternative uses in the area.
