Command post beside the main gate to south-east corner of the main parade ground. Note the reserved parking spaces for the Commandant and his deputy. The Gordon Barracks complex was built 1932-35 in finest Aberdeen granite to house the Gordon Highlanders, who moved from the Castlegate in the city centre. The Gordons moved out in the 1990s and the complex is now used by the Territorial Army with parts leased to commercial tenants. Photo taken on an open day with permission.
