Shooter's Hill Road (the A207) viewed through the previous main entrance of the former Administrative Block of the former Royal Herbert (Military) Hospital. This particular block - named Galton House, after the architect - once housed a porter's lodge, the guardroom, waiting rooms, examination rooms and a surgery, along with the offices of the governor, registrar, paymaster and other officers' quarters. These gates are used for emergencies only now. The whole site - "Royal Herbert Pavilions" - was converted into private apartments in 1995.
