Summarised from report:

A little to the south-east West Flank Casemates there was a two-cell building built of brick with a slate roof. Exactly when this building was constructed is unknown but it was certainly in existence by 1871 when it was in use as a Armoury. On a slightly later plan (1880’s) it is labelled as a Laboratory, a type of building in which shells were filled with explosive. In 1911 it was in use as the Armament Offices and in 1929 as the Medical Inspection Building, incorporating a Waiting Room at the eastern end. This building has since been demolished.(1)

Detail of this structure appears on a plan dating to 1871 which shows all of the works which were undertaken under the reccomendations of the Royal Commission. (2)
