THE MILITARY IN OLD DEVONPORT

NEW GRANBY BARRACKS

Granby Square Barracks were demolished between 1824 and 1830 and replaced by New Granby Barracks.  This was adjacent to the north side of Fore Street, immediately opposite the Hope Baptist Chapel.

The Soldiers' Quarters adjoined the main road while within its inner wall was the Devonport Military Prison and a Bath House.

By the 1860s it was no longer "New" and therefore known as just Granby Barracks.
