Sherwood Avenue, Newark on Trent, Notts.
This drill hall was constructed as the headquarters of the 8th Battalion Sherwood Foresters and opened by the Duke of Portland in June 1914. The battalion was mobilised at the drill hall in August 1914 before being deployed to the Western Front and was still based here at the start of the Second World War. The battalion amalgamated with 5th Derbyshire Battalion, to form 5th/8th Battalion Sherwood Foresters (Notts. & Derbys. Regiment) in 1961. Between 1967-71, following M.O.D funding cut-backs, the use of the drill hall was much reduced. Finally, after the infantry presence in Newark was reduced to a single platoon in the early 1990s the drill hall was decommissioned, converted and enlarged for use as offices. It is currently occupied by RPS, the design and planning consultants.
