The Bluecoat Arts Centre in Liverpool, England, is the oldest building in the city centre. It was built c.1716 in the Queen Anne style to house a school for poor children. The school, now known as The Liverpool Blue Coat School, moved to new premises in 1906, but the building was preserved as an arts centre owing to its cultural significance, and has survived the growth of the city around it, tucked in just a few metres away from the shopping district.
