A right-hand glance when standing in front of the entrance gates that provide access into the south-west corner of the Brunt's Academy provides a view of this building, "The Mansfield Community Performance Centre". Since this building is on the Brunt's Academy site perhaps it is safe to assume that the building was (or is) a jointly funded venture? The Brunts Academy is a large secondary school that specialises in the Performing Arts. Brunts has been a Grammar School and a Technical School in the past and it traces its foundation to a bequest by Samuel Brunts in 1709. This was the year that Samuel Brunts left a bequest that was used by an Elementary School to assist local children "to learn an honest trade". The Brunts School became The Brunts Academy on 1st January 2012.
