This building was originally Hopeman Infant School, but was bought by officers of Burghead Artillery Volunteers for conversion into a drill hall in 1901. Repairs were carried out in 1909 by Charles Chree Doig, and then it was in use as a drill hall throughout the First World War. In 1937, a branch of the Scottish Women's Rural Institute was founded here. The building has now been converted into houses.
