Background
History
The building, which was designed in the Victorian style, was opened as the headquarters of the North-Eastern Military District in October 1878. It became the headquarters of Northern Command in 1905. The Fishergate site was named Imphal Barracks in 1951, but closed in 1958, when Northern Command HQ moved to a new Imphal Barracks on Fulford Road, York. It is described as a "building of merit" in the local conservation area appraisal.
