The Old Barracks is a former military installation in Barrack Road, Warwick, England. It is a Grade I listed building. [1]
The building was designed by Thomas Johnson in the Greek Doric style as the local prison and completed in 1783. [1] It was extended and modified by Henry Couchman in 1793. [1] After the prison moved to Cape Road in 1860, the building was converted into barracks for the 1st Warwickshire Militia Regiment in 1860. [2] Immediately prior to the First World War, the divisional headquarters of the South Midland Division was located in the building. [3] It was then used as an army record office. [2] It was decommissioned in 1930 and subsequently integrated into the Shire Hall complex when the complex was extended in 1932. [1]
