The first building at the botton of Hallgate, with the bars to the windows, was this the old All Saint's School?

Freda.
The building at the bottom of hallgate with bars on the windows is the Old Bluecoat School before it was knocked down to make way for the Bus station.All Saints School is now the Deanery situated a couple of hundred yards down Frog Lane from the Old Bluecoat building.

Thanks for that, I thought that they were one and the same.
