Formerly the Notre Dame Convent and School. It is partly a Listed Building (Grade II) and stands in the Mount Pleasant Conservation Area. The centrepiece of the building is the former chapel with a slender spire (with the JMU bird weather vane), and with attractive Victorian stained glass windows in the apse.

John Foster Junior (c.1786-1846) lived at 82 Mount Pleasant which is now part of the Business School. He was Liverpool Corporation Surveyor from 1824 to 1835, and the architect of St Andrew's Church, Rodney Street (1823). As a student, he was described by Professor Cockerall as "a most amazing youth, but too idle to be anything more than a dinner companion".
