Former Drill Hall - Southfield Street

Image: © John M Taken: 5 Sep 2015

This building and terrace appear on the 1904 mapping but not on the 1887 version. The building in the foreground appears to be associated with the drill hall complex completing the range of pre-1887 buildings on two sides of a courtyard. A blank shield on the gable end offers no clues to function. The earlier buildings have been replaced by housing though opposite boundary wall still has a series of tethering rings for horses.
