The transfer included the transfer of the land and building comprising the Old Grammar School, Hales Street, Coventry a Grade I listed building that had been donated to the Old Grammar School Charity and held at nil value. At the date of transfer the directors are of the opinion that the property in a state of dilapidation had nil value. The Lottery funding received by Culture Coventry made it possible to conserve and revitalise the building and allow the building to be brought back into use and the Directors to achieve the charitable aims of the company. The land and buildings are currently insured for approximately £3.1 million. The directors are of the view that as the aim was to hold it as a heritage property it would not make economic sense or be practicable to have the building revalued.
