Monument record TR 34 SW 2097 - Bread and Meat Store of the South Front Barracks, Western Heights, Dover
Summary
Between 1860 and 1870 a bread and meat store was constructed (alongside a variety of other structures) on the rising ground to the south of the casemated barracks at the South Front Barracks. A plan dating to 1898 shows that it was located between the stables and the straw store, with Citadel Road on its northern side. It was a small rectangular brick building with a slate roof, well-ventilated and with a veranda for air and shade. (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
