A road leading to a rugby league ground has been renamed in honour of a club legend who died last year.
Poorhouse Lane has now become Phil Lowe Way – named after the forward who played for Hull Kingston Rovers from 1967 to 1983.
The road sign, outside the club’s home ground Craven Park, is in red and white to match the team’s colours.
It was unveiled by his son, Andy Lowe, who said his father would be “really proud of what the club have done for him”.
“This club was everything to him, absolutely everything,” he said.
“It means a hell of a lot.”
Lowe was a key member of the Robins’ side that won the title in 1978-79 and the Challenge Cup the following year.
He was also the youngest member of the victorious Great Britain Ashes tour party to Australasia in 1970.
Hundreds of fans turned up to Craven Park for his funeral in April 2024 following his death aged 74.

His son said the renaming of the street meant his father would “be here for eternity now”.
“Whenever I come to any of the games the first thing you see is my dad’s name,” he said.
“It’s nice to let no one forget him and if you’re sending a letter to Hull KR now, you’ve got to send it to Phil Lowe.
“That’s brilliant, isn’t it?”
