The corner of Bluecoat Street at its junction with Mansfield Road (A60) hosts one of the Bluecoat School's previous sites. The former school building was designed by Thomas Hines in Elizabethan style - with mullioned windows - and was opened in 1853. There are statues of a boy and a girl in traditional school uniform in corner niches in the front elevation. The school continued to function here until 1967 when new premises were opened in Aspley Lane. Today the building is the home of the Y.M.C.A. International Community Centre.
