‘Artillery Drill hall, Arnold street.’ (Kelly, 1891)
1st Norfolk Volunteer Artillery, Eastern Division Royal Garrison Artillery Nos. 5 & 6 Garrison Companies (Kelly, 1900)
‘3rd East Anglian Ammunition Column; head quarters, Arnold road.’ (Kelly, 1912)
The Lowestoft Directory 1891 states that 'The DRILL HALL was erected about 1872, by the Artillery Corps. VOLUNTEERS - ARTILLERY, 160 men. INFANTRY, 200 men. YEOMANRY, 50 men.'
We believe that this drill hall is used by a car sales company. We would be grateful for any up-to-date information.
