Three blocks of married officers' quarters were built along the north side of The Terrace, overlooking the cricket ground, between 1866 and 1871. They were known as Blocks A to G. One of them contained the surgeon's house, and the block in the photograph is the central Block C to E. All the Blocks are Grade II Listed Buildings. Following the closure of the garrison in the 1980s they have subsequently been converted into residential properties.
