Full Description
Summarised from report:
Two building were constructed at the Citadel in 1928 which contained stores of clothing, small arms and sundry supplies. One was located immediately north of the area behind the South-West Flank Casemates, while the other stood a little to the west of the Regimental Institute. The buildings, now demolished, were single-storeyed, of rendered brick, with slate roofs gabled roughly north-south. They consisted of three cells, each with independent access on the east front. The Company Store, was at the north end and formed the largest Room while the Office occupied the centre, and the Sergeants’ Bunk, intended for two sergeants, occupied the southern end. The south building seems to have retained this pattern of use throughout the military presence at the Citadel. The north building was adapted between 1929 and 1947 to serve as a Welfare Clinic, though changes to the fabric of the building appear to have been minimal. (1)
