Wilberforce House

Wilberforce House is a British historic house museum, part of the Museums Quarter of Kingston upon Hull. It is the birthplace of social reformer William Wilberforce (1759–1833), who used his time as a member of Parliament to work for the abolition of slavery throughout the British Empire, which had not been thoroughly stymied by the Abolition of Slave Trade Act 1807. Like the nearby Blaydes House and Maister House, also on the High Street, the Grade I listed building was formerly a merchant's house with access to quayside on the River Hull.
