Before WW1 there was a Drill Hall on Admiral Street, at the corner of High Park Street, next to St Silas Church. It probably disappeared before 1939, or was converted to other uses.
This is an appeal for any photograph of the premises to help a historian in this field. There is none in the Central Library collection.
[Note: this is not the Upper Warwick Street drill hall, but one of the pre-1930s building there would also be welcome!]

Useful clue, as usual, thanks. There might be a photo somewhere filed under that title.

Thanks for extras, too. That unit had a battery in Garston and their HQ and that has also disappeared without trace apart from maps.
