Blaydes House, Grade II* listed Georgian mansion in High Street, Hull, England.

The three-story Blaydes House features symmetrical architecture with tall windows, fine brickwork, and decorative stone elements on its Georgian facade.

The Blaydes family constructed this residence in the 1740s as both a home and business center for their shipbuilding enterprise in Kingston upon Hull.

The University of Hull maintains the Maritime Historical Studies Centre within Blaydes House, preserving documents and materials about naval architecture.

The building stands at 6 High Street and functions as an educational facility with restricted access except during scheduled research appointments.

The shipyard connected to this house produced the merchant vessel Bethia, which later became HMS Bounty under the command of William Bligh.
