military units stationed at inkerman Barracks
Inkerman Barracks was originally built as a prison for male invalid convicts, in 1860.  In 1867, a second prison adjacent was opened for female prisoners. 

Due to changes in policy, the prisons became surplus to requirements in about 1890 and were then acquired by the War Office.
