Blackburne House is a building situated in Liverpool, England. It was originally the home of John Blackburne, but has since been used for other purposes.

History

Blackburne House was built between 1785 and 1790 for John Blackburne. Blackburne was Mayor of Liverpool in 1788. In 1874 the house was rebuilt and extended. It was at this time that the Liverpool Institute High School for Girls was established in the building[1]. The school was commonly referred to as Blackburne House, rather than its full title.

The school was eventually closed in 1984. Over the next ten years the house was refitted and reopened in 1994 as Blackburne House Centre for Women.
