WW1 Drill hall at Grindlay Court

Image: © M J Richardson Taken: 2 Jul 2014

At the time of WW1 the home of 1 Lowland Brigade Royal Field Artillery (HQ, 1 & 2 Batteries and Ammunition Column) in a court behind 30 Grindlay Street. I'm not sure if the part of the building on the right is part of the drill hall. http://www.geograph.org.uk/article/WW1-Great-War-Centenary---Drill-Halls/18#lothians. Since 1991 the building has been used by the Royal Lyceum Theatre Company, with the hall being used for rehearsals, and accessed at 30 Grindlay Street. Before the Lyceum it was used by Heriot-Watt University Students Union.
