Hinge pin removal

Hi all
Can anyone enlighten me on which direction the pins are removed?
Thanks

A long long time I replaced a couple of hinge pins, Andy

To remove I tapped them up the way. As I mind, I had removed the hinges
from the car first ( I was changing the doors anyway).
They were pretty stubborn.....
