According to fellow contributor John Maddan, this is "probably the hall shown on the 1896 1:2500 mapping and later surrounded by other buildings, built for the Second West Kent Volunteers and after 1908 used by the Twentieth Battalion London Regiment". The building is now part of the Blackheath Territorial Army Cadet Centre Image, which is set in an enclosed compound at the western end of the heath, largely surrounded by trees. I did seek permission through official channels to take photos inside the site but this was declined, so am just submitting one photo taken from a distance.
