Graeme Fisher Posted 15 January , 2006 Share Posted 15 January , 2006 It's quite uncommon to see the inside of drill halls, but this postcard shows how large these places were, with complicated roof structures to allow natural light in. The gun limber and the other (medical?) carriage show the scale of the place, a huge space where men could march and drill, without columns to impede their progress. Lovely picture Thanks Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Posted 16 January , 2006 Share Posted 16 January , 2006 Referring to size, Graeme has information and pictures of the Norfolk Barracks, Sheffield, where the riding school - complete with horses - took place on the first storey and was reached by a ramp. The noise underneath must have been horrific. Roy, what is the exact location, the address, of this lovely photo, please? Gwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
