Boundary Stone on Beavers Lane
Behind the wall is Cavalry Barracks, a military site from Victorian times. This is at the south west corner and I would guess the stone marks the end of MOD land. It is inscribed WL with an arrow and N???D below, too worn away to read.

Part of Cavalry Barracks
Cavalry Barracks is a large Victorian military site in the middle of Hounslow. It is scheduled to close in 2020 and parts of it are already shut. A lot of the buildings are architecturally quite striking and will probably be retained.

Gates to Cavalry Barracks
Cavalry Barracks is a large military site in the middle of Hounslow. It is scheduled to close in 2020 and as I walked past a lot of derelict buildings behind big fences I thought I would be able to get a picture through the gate of what's in there. Sadly, just by the gate were two soldiers with big guns so I had to pretend I wasn't a photographer and saunter on past. At least until they couldn't see me any more.
The last person to be flogged to death in the British army met his end here in 1846.
In 2007, MPs expressed concern in a report that some of the Victorian buildings at Cavalry Barracks were so bad that troops staying in tented camps in Afghanistan had better living conditions than those at Hounslow.

It's probably good it's closing.

Art deco hut on Barrack Road
This is probably part of the large army camp opposite, but have no idea what it's being used for, if anything.
