HISTORY: an example of a standard design for the Localisation Depots, providing accommodation for married soldiers. The Cardwell reforms redistributed barracks around the country to encourage local connections and assist recruitment. Married quarters were a relatively new type within barracks, and this is an early example of the type. It forms part of one of the two most complete examples of the depots, with Reading, (gv), unusual in being built in stone and attached to the former Militia armoury (qv).
